Abstract
A diode-pumped acousto-optically (AO) Q-switched 1066â¯nm laser with a novel Nd:GdTaO4 crystal was demonstrated for the first time to the best of our knowledge. The optimization selection of output coupler was carried out in the continuous-wave (CW) operation. After that the pulsed Nd:GdTaO4 laser performances using different modulation repetition rates of 10â¯kHz and 20â¯kHz were investigated. At an absorbed pump power of 10â¯W and repetition rates of 10â¯kHz, the obtained minimum pulse width was 28â¯ns and the maximum peak power was 5.4â¯kW.
