摘要
A diode-pumped actively Q-switched Nd:GdVO4 green laser with periodically poled KTP (PPKTP) and Acoustic-optic (AO) modulator has been realized. The dependences of pulse energy, pulse width, and peak power on incident pump power are measured. At the pump power of 4.1 W and repetition rate of 10 kHZ, we can obtain a 19.2 ns pulse with pulse energy of 0.11 mJ and peak power of 5.8 kW, which are almost three times of that in the conventional KTP green laser, respectively. A rate equation model is introduced to theoretically analyze the results obtained in the experiment, in which the Gaussian spatial distribution of the intracavity photon density is taken into account. The numerical solutions of the rate equations agree with the experimental results.
