Abstract
We measured the two-dimensional birefringence compensation in laser-diode (LD) pumped Nd:glass (HAP4) laser rods with a high-sensitivity polarimeter. The compensation was performed by inserting a 90° quartz rotator between two identical LD pumped Nd:glass rods with conductive cooling. A considerable reduction of birefringence loss from 9.8% to less than 0.9% after compensation was observed.
