Abstract
We have demonstrated 10 W multimode and 6.5 W TEM00 average power from a side-pumped Nd:YLF solid state laser operated at 1 kHz repetition rate. The laser slab was transversely pumped using four 1 cm long by GaAIAs linear arrays. The optical path of the laser beam was straight through the crystal.
