Title
Quantitative Studies Of Cr4+:Yag As A Saturable Absorber For Nd:Yag Laser
Abstract
The performance of a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser using Cr4+:YAG as a passive Q-switched is reported. The Q-switched pulse contains two orders of magnitude more energy than the free running spike. An increase in the energy extraction efficiency of the Q-switched pulse with the appearance of multiple spikes, as well as shortening of the Q-switched pulsewidth were observed and analyzed. © 1995.
