Abstract

Laser performances around 1.3 μm are investigated in 879 nm laser diode (LD) end pumped Nd³⁺ doped mixed crystals with Nd:Gd_0.69Y_0.3TaO₄ and Nd:Gd_0.68Y_0.3NbO₄ crystals for the first time to our best knowledge. The maximum average power in LD end pumped Nd:Gd_0.69Y_0.3TaO₄ 1328 nm laser reaches 435 mW at 50 Hz with an optical-to-optical efficiency of 5.0% and a slope efficiency of 6.9%. In comparison, the highest average power of LD end pumped Nd:Gd_0.68Y_0.3NbO₄ laser at 1337 nm is 190 mW at 50 Hz, corresponding to an optical-to-optical efficiency of 3.5% and a slope efficiency of 4.2%.
