摘要
Laser output power losses in a ceramic Nd:YAG laser with a doping rate of 2 at.% Nd3+ due to thermal effects were analyzed. The ceramic Nd:YAG laser output power losses due to. thermal birefringence effects and thermal lens effects were measured via changes in the output power of the ceramic Nd:YAG laser. At a pump power of 12W. the total laser output power loss, the loss due to the thermal lens, and the loss due to thermal birefringence were found to be 68.7%, 48.1%, and 20.6%, respectively.
