Abstract

In this paper a theoretical analysis for optimization of the miniature Cr4+ YAG passive Q-switched, repetitive operation, conductive cooling (Ce,Nd) YAG laser has been made The critical threshold energy curve, analytical expression oflaser efficiency and single pulse region were obtained This analysis was useful in guiding developing a miniature Cr4+.YAG passive Q-switched, repetitive operation, conductive cooling (Ce,Nd) .YAG laser which is now being used in airborne height-finders
