Modeling for Spatial Overlap Effect of End-Pumped Passively Q-Switched Nd:YVO<sub>4</sub>/Cr<sup>4+</sup>:YAG Laser and Its Experimental Verification

In this work, the spatial effects of the pumping and lasing were considered into the coupled rate equations of passively Q-switched lasers for the condition of no saturation in the gain medium. A transcendental equation of energy utilization was derived, and the solution to the equation was approxim...
