  • Abstract
    In this paper, we demonstrate a 10 W class pico-second laser system based on a continuous-wave diode-pumped Nd:YVO4 slab double-pass amplifier with a bounce geometry. This is the highest value, to the best of our knowledge, obtained by pico-second double-pass lasers in the bounce amplifier configuration. The Mx2 and My2 of the output were 3.0 and 1.7, respectively.
