摘要
We demonstrate the laser performance of 970 nm LD side-pumped LuYSGG/Er:LuYSGG/LuYSGG bonding crystal in a frequency range of 50-800 Hz. The thermal distribution simulation implies that the bonded Er:LuYSGG crystal possesses a higher cooling efficiency compared with the un-bonded one. The maximum average power of 20.76 W is realized at a frequency of 150 Hz and a pulse width of 200 mu s, corresponding to a slope efficiency of 23.94 % and optical-to-optical conversion efficiency of 19.22 %. A single laser wavelength of 2797.5 nm is observed. The M2 factors of the bonding rod are 6.80/6.74, indicating a relatively high beam quality. Therefore, the LuYSGG/Er:LuYSGG/LuYSGG bonding crystal exhibits an improvement of laser performance operated at 2.8 mu m due to excellent heat dissipation ability, which is a promising gain element and can be applied to the harsh radiation environment.
