Abstract

A Q-switched Nd: YLF laser pumped by two quasi-cw diode laser bars has been developed. The laser produces 5-mJ, 12-ns pulses at 1.047 µm, and has been frequency doubled and quadrupled to 1.5 mJ and 0.35 mJ, respectively. Repetition rates of 500 Hz will be attainable when driven by 20% duty factor diode laser bars.
