摘要
We report for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, a Yb:YAG laser operating in a CW on the three-level laser at 968 nm, based on the (2) F (5/2)-(2) F (7/2) transition, generally used for a 1030 nm emission. The use of a pump module with 16 passes through the crystal allowed the realization of a Yb:YAG thin-disk laser with 507 mW of continuous wave (CW) output power at 968 nm. Moreover, intracavity second-harmonic generation (SHG) has also been achieved with a power of 58 mW at 484 nm by using a BiB3O6 (BIBO) non-linear crystal.
