Abstract

We report a wavelength-tunable multi-point pump scheme of the semiconductor disk lasers (SDLs). By designing an external cavity of SDL with an intra-cavity transmission grating, multiple pump gain regions share the same resonator. The effect of the intra-cavity grating on the output laser power, wavelength, and beam quality was investigated. The emission wavelength could be tuned over a bandwidth of ∼18 nm. With multi-point pumping, we achieve the laser output power with almost no loss, and further improvement is limited by the thermal effect. The changes in the beam are due to the mode selectivity by the intra-cavity grating.
