- Abstract
- High-power room-temperature operation of an Er:YAG laser at 1617 nm in-band pumped by a cladding-pumped Er, Yb fiber laser at 1532 nm is reported. The Er: YAG laser yielded 31 W of continuous-wave output in a beam with M-2 approximate to 2.2 for 72 W of incident pump power. The threshold pump power was 4.1 W and the slope efficiency with respect to incident pump power was similar to 47 %. The influence of erbium doping level and resonator design on laser performance is discussed, and the prospects for further increase in output power and improvement in lasing efficiency are considered.
