摘要：
We present quantitative interferometric measurements of thermal lensing in a diode-pumped Nd:YVO4 crystal with and without laser action. The thermal loading increased by two times when laser action was inhibited, The thermal loading was strongly dependent on upper laser-level loss mechanisms (e.g., nonradiative decay, quenching, and Auger recombination).
