Study on LD-Pumped Yb:YAG Rod Laser

Article Preview

Abstract:

The physical properties and characteristics of absorption and emission spectra of Yb: YAG crystal are analyzed in this paper. From the rate equation of quasi-three-level system ,We derive the rate equations of diode-pumped continuous work-end-pumped solid state laser and a theoretical analysis and optimization design for continuous LD end-pumped lasers are given.
