摘要
A diode-pumped tunable CW Nd3+:LGS laser at quasi-three-level has been demonstrated. The output power up to 403mW at the central wavelength of 904nm was obtained, corresponding to a slope efficiency of 29.7%. Taking advantage of the broad emission spectrum of the disordered crystal Nd:LGS, we tuned the laser wavelength within the spectral range of 899.8 to 906:6nm with an etalon inserted into the V-type cavity. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first time to obtain a tunable laser based on the 4F 3/2-4I9/2 transition of Nd3+-doped crystals.
