摘要：
The output characteristics of a ceramic Nd:YAG laser pumped by a fiber-coupled laser diode was investigated. An efficiency and a slope efficiency of 33.8 % and 39.3 % respectively were obtained, under an output coupler reflectance of 90.4 %. The laser power has decreased suddenly due to the thermal lensing effect more than 6 W pumping powers.
