SOLID STATE LASER DEVICES.

Abstract

Toward meeting the objective of developing a solid state laser with an output in the megawatt range and a repetition rate in the kilocycle range, device studies have been conducted on a continuously-pumped Q-spoiled YAG:Nd(+3) laser. The results are reported here, along with an analysis of the behavior of such a system. Material studies on the systems Y2O3:Eu(+3) and YbAG:Er(+3) are also described. (Author)
