Abstract
Recently, there has been an increased interest in high-power and high-energy 2-µm lasers, due to a number of potential medical, military and scientific applications. Our aim is to develop a high-power Tm:YLF slab laser which can be utilized to pump a Ho slab laser. A 68 W Tm:YLF slab laser was recently presented in [1] pumped from one end by a single 6-bar stack delivering ∼300 W of pump power. In this work, we present a Tm:YLF slab laser pumped by two diode-bar stacks from both ends, leading to a maximum output power of 192.5 W.
