Diode-Pumped Cryogenic Yb[superscript 3+]:YLF Laser of 100-W Output Power with High Beam Quality
A cryogenically cooled Yb:YLF laser with 224-W output power at 995 nm, linearly polarized along the c-axis, has been demonstrated, and laser oscillation has also been obtained polarized along the a-axis. The beam quality had an M2 ~ 1.1 at 60-W output and M² ~ 2.6 at 180-W output for c-axis polariza...
