Abstract
A high-repetition-rate and double-end pumped electro-optic Q-switched Tm:YAlO3 (Tm:YAP) laser is reported. The Tm:YAP slab crystal cut by c-axis is used as the laser gain medium, and the RbTiOPO4(RTP) crystal is selected as the electro-optic Q-switched crystal. Choosing volume Bragg gratings (VBG) as the input mirror to narrow the output line width. When the pump power is 79.2 W, at a repetition rate of 10 kHz, maximum average-output-power of 21.96 W is achieved, with the pulse width of 20.64 ns and output energy of 2.20 mJ. The output peak power is 107.3 kW and the slope efficiency is 29.2%. The center wavelength is 1937.87 nm and the line width is 0.73 nm. The beam quality in the x direction is 1.48, and in the y direction is 1.50.
