Abstract
Diode-pumped high power solid-state lasers are attractive devices for material processing and applications in basic research because of their high efficiency and low noise.1-4 Extremely sophisticated lasers are required for the detection of gravitational waves using Michelson type interferometers. A light source with high cw output power about cw 100 W in single-frequency operation at a low noise level is necessary.
