A depolarization phenomenon in an electro-optical crystal in a quasi-three-level 946 nm Nd:YAG laser is observed. A compensation of the thermal effects in electro-optical crystals is achieved by employing a quarter-wave plate, with one optical axis p
Mode matching of the pump beam with laser modes in laser diode (LD) end-pumped solid-state laser was experimentally studied. Considering both the mode-match degree and laser threshold, the effective absorbed pump power in Nd:YAG was calculated. Based
We report a double Q-switched 946 nm laser with a magnesium-oxide-doped LiNbO3 (MgO:LN) electro-optic (EO) crystal and a monolayer molybdenum diselenide (MoSe2) saturable absorber (SA). A pulsed laser diode side-pumped long neodymium-doped yttrium al
