Abstract

We have obtained three-level continuous-wave laser operation at 985 nm with an Yb doped S-FAP bulk crystal pumped by a Ti: Sapphire laser. An output power of 250 mW for an incident pump power of 1.45 W has been achieved, which is the highest cw output power ever obtained to our knowledge at this wavelength with an Yb: doped crystal. The experimental results are in good agreement with the numerical model that we have developed.
