Abstract

Thermal power density produced in the laser medium of a continuous-wave (cw) Cr:LiSAF laser has been investigated to clarify the laser output characteristics. For the cw Cr:LiSAF laser using axially symmetrical end pumping, the available pump power density has been found to be limited to less than ∼100 W/mm3. Based on the thermal characteristics studied, an efficient diode-pumped cw Cr:LiSAF laser has been developed.
