摘要：
A new thin-slab ceramic Nd:YAG laser is presented based on a non-conventional zig-zag configuration. The slab is shaped in such a way that the beam propagates internally bouncing on the thin lateral faces (Edge zig-zag). Preliminary experiments have demonstrated a power extraction of 170 W (CW) at an optical conversion efficiency of 36%. Measurements have also been performed to assess the propagation properties, at least in the thinner transverse direction, of the beam extracted with a simple stable resonator. This laser format appears as a good competitor of the more traditional face-pumped or edge-pumped zig-zag slab laser schemes. [DOI: http://dx.doi. org/ 10.2971/jeos.2011.11047]
