A 142-W Diffraction-Limited Q-Switched Rotary Disk Yb-YAG Laser for Material Processing

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The average power of a diffraction-limited Q-switched diode pumped solid state laser was scaled to 142 W. At 100 W, the laser drilled 44 μm diameter holes in 3-mm thick stainless steel in 3.4 s.
