We present a Nd:YAG, diode-stack side-pumped, Porro-prism resonator. Laser performance was investigated both in Cr:YAG passive and KTP Pockels-cell active Q-Switching regimes. 10-mJ, 40-ns pulses were obtained at 20 Hz pulse-rate with M2<10 and low jitter. The misalignment insensitivity guaranteed by crossed- Porro-prisms design is attractive for applications in harsh envi- ronment.

Abstract
We present a Nd:YAG, diode-stack side-pumped, Porro-prism resonator. Laser performance was investigated both in Cr:YAG passive and KTP Pockels-cell active Q-Switching regimes. 10-mJ, 40-ns pulses were obtained at 20 Hz pulse-rate with M2<10 and low jitter. The misalignment insensitivity guaranteed by crossed- Porro-prisms design is attractive for applications in harsh envi- ronment.File in questo prodotto:
