Abstract

A high efficient Tm:YAG ceramic laser at 2007 nm pumped by a diode laser was demonstrated. The laser performances with Tm³⁺ doping concentrations of 4 at.% and 6 at.% were comparatively analyzed. The continuous-wave (CW) laser powers up to 2.11 W and 1.68 W have been obtained for Tm:YAG ceramics at 6 at.% and 4 at.% doping levels, corresponding to the slope efficiencies of 43.6% and 53.8% respectively.
