Abstract

By using a laser-diode as pump source and saturable absorber Cr⁴⁺:YAG as passive Q-switch, a KTP as intracavity frequency doubling crystal, we have realized green Q- switched laser output at 0.5295 micrometers from a Nd:S-FAP crystal. The output green laser characteristics, such as the average power, the single pulse energy, the pulse width, the repetition rate for different small-signal transmission of Cr⁴⁺:YAG and different pump power, were measured. Meanwhile, the coupling rate equations of intracavity frequency doubling for Cr⁴⁺:YAG as passive Q-switch were given and the numerical solution of equations agreed with the experimental results.
