Abstract

95.6 W continuous-wave laser power output in 880 nm LD partially end-pumped Nd:GdVO4 slab laser with a hybrid resonator is presented. The slope efficiency and optical-to-optical efficiency were 46.5% and nearly 42.6%, respectively. At the output power of 82 W, beam quality M2 factors were 1.1 in the unstable direction and 1.36 in the stable direction, respectively.
