Abstract

High-peak-power, short-pulse-width diode pumped 946 nm Nd:YAG laser in passively Q-switching operation with Cr 4:YAG is reported. The highest average output power reaches 3.4 W using the Cr 4:YAG with initial transmissivity T 0=95%. When the T 0=90% Cr 4:YAG is employed, the maximum peak power of 31.4 kW with a pulse width of 8.3 ns at 946 nm is generated.
