Abstract

In this paper, a high power continuous-wave red laser was reported with LD side-pumped Nd:YAP crystal and type-I critical phase matching of LBO crystal. The thermal focal length of Nd:YAP crystal was measured, and the parameters of laser cavity were selected by computer optimum designing. The output characteristics of line cavity and V-cavity were compared in experiment. By using V-cavity, the red laser output of 9.98W at continuous 670.7nm with near fundamental mode was obtained under the incident pump power of 800W for the Nd:YAP crystal, the divergence of the laser beam was about 10mrad. To the best of our knowledge, these results represent the highest performance at this wavelength for continuous-wave solid-state lasers.
