Abstract

We demonstrate a diode-pumped Cr:LiSAF laser with an average output power of >1 W. This is the highest reported average output power from a Cr:LiSAF laser to our knowledge. Using a strongly asymmetric laser mode allows both optimized mode matching and efficient cooling of the laser crystal. The technique should also be extendible to other thermally-poor laser materials such as Nd:glass.
