Abstract
We compare, for the first time to the best of our knowledge, the behavior of a grazing incidence Nd:YVO4 laser when pumped at 808 nm and when directly pumped at 880 nm. We report a more linear behavior of the output power as a function of input power under direct pumping, due to a decrease in thermal effects.
