Abstract

In a side-pumped laser module, we simulate the pumping power distribution across the cross-section of Nd:YAG rods at varying diameters. The coupled rate equations with the spatial overlap efficiency for a four-level actively Q-switched side-pumped laser are considered complete. After a Q-switched pulse terminates, the expressions of laser output parameters are derived. We assess the single pulse energy, pulse width, and peak power using the analysis function. The 200 Hz Q-switched side-pumped Nd:YAG laser with a peak power of 103 kW and beam quality factors M2 = 1.67 is developed to the validity of theoretical models.
