Abstract :
The high brightness-temperature laser operation and functional wavelength conversion of a tunable microchip laser is demonstrated in this paper. A peak power close to 2 MW for energy of 0.95 mJ and duration of 480 ps pulse with high beam quality is obtained in the diode end-pumped passively Q-switched Nd:Y3Al5O12 microchip laser. The results indicate the future possibility of high average power giant pulse generation in the microchip configuration.
