Abstract

We demonstrated a cavity-dumped burst-mode 1.06 μm side-pumped Nd:YAG laser and its dual-stage dual-pass amplified laser performance. The cavity dumping process has been theoretically studied and the output performance has been experimentally investigated. At the pumping duration of 2 ms and pumping frequency of 10 Hz, burst energy, peak power and pulse width of the amplified laser reached 1.89 J, 2.87 MW and 3.1 ± 0.3 ns, respectively, at the Q-switch repetition rate of 100 kHz. The maximum energy extraction efficiency reaches to 30%.
