Abstract
A laser-diode end-pumped Tm:YAG single crystal slab laser in acousto-optic Q-switched operation was demonstrated. For Q-switched operation, the average output power of 20.7 W at 1 kHz was achieved under the absorbed pump power of 83.6 W, corresponding to the slope efficiency of 36.1%, the shortest pulse width of 84 ns and the maximum pulse energy of 20.7 mJ with peak power of 250 kW were obtained.
