Abstract

We demonstrated a laser-diode pumped Nd-doped yttrium gallium garnet (Nd:YGG) crystal continuous wave (CW) laser at 1.33 μm for the first time to our knowledge. At an incident pump power of 18.5 W, as high as 3.09 W of CW output power at 1.33 μm is achieved. The slope efficiency with respect to the incident pump power was 21.3%, and the fluctuation of the output power was better than 2.8% in the given 4 h. The beam quality factor M2 is 1.14 and 1.16 for tangential direction and sagittal direction, respectively.
