Abstract: | By using the mixed crystals Nd:Lu0.15 Y0.85 VO4, Nd:Lu0.5Y0.5VO4 and Nd:Lu0.33Y0.37Gd0.3VO4 as laser media, the LD pumped passively Q-switched mixed lasers with GaAs saturable absorber are realized. The average output power, the pulse width etc. have been measured and compared. The experimental results show that the passively Q-switched Nd:Lu0.33Y0.37Gd0.3VO4 laser can generate shorter pulse width with higher peak power due to broader fluorescence line-width. Under Gaussian spatial distribution approximation, the rate equations for LD pumped passively Q-switched lasers of the mixed crystals with GaAs saturable absorber are given. The numerical solutions of the equations are in agreement with the experimental results. |
