Article Description

We report on a quasi-continuous Er:YAG planar waveguide laser operated at 2.94 µm based on the major oscillator power amplification configuration. With the total pump peak power of 32.01 kW, a maximum output peak power of 1.14 kW was obtained at the seed injection peak power of 184.4 W operated at 400µs, 40 Hz. Furthermore, the numerical simulation results indicate that better performance of the laser could be obtained with the higher injected seed laser power. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first experimental demonstration of 2.94 µm planar waveguide laser with an Er doped host material.
