Abstract

The Cr²⁺ laser is a promising candidate for tunable mid-IR applications. However, thermal effects have prevented the typical end-pumped, side-cooled rod laser design from producing more than 2 watts in output power.^1,2 A resonator designed for maximum suppression of thermal effects is required for further power scaling.
