摘要
High pulse amplitude stability of 0.62% (rms) is achieved at 60 kHz repetition rate in fundamental mode with double-end continuous-grown YVO4/Nd:YVO4/YVO4 composite crystal. The average output power and pulse peak power are 32.9 W and 27.7 kW, respectively, with 19.8 ns pulse width and 548 mu J pulse energy. The pulse amplitude stability is investigated experimentally. The stability gets improved with the decrease of repetition rate and output transmission. From theoretical analysis, the reason of pulse instability at high repetition rates is that the initial population inversion doesn't saturate and the final population inversion doesn't approach zero. With the decrease of repetition rate and output transmission, the final population inversion decreases and the interaction between two adjacent pulse periods is weakened. Therefore, pulse stability improves.
