abstract = "A1645nm injection-seeded Q-switched Er:YAG ceramic laser pumped by a 1532 nm fiber laser with changeable pulse repetition frequency (PRF) used for Coherent wind measurement Lidar is demonstrated. Single-frequency operation of Er:YAG laser is achieved by injection seeding technique. A M-shape' ring cavity is utilized to eliminate the effects of spatial hole burning. The laser delivered single-frequency pulses with energy ranging from 6.6 to 10.2 mJ. The corresponding pulse width and PRF varied between 179 ns-271 ns and 300 Hz-1 kHz, respectively. And the line width at 300 Hz is measured to be 2.82 MHz. The measured M2 factors are 1.51 and 1.54 in x and y directions, respectively.",
