Thermal stress effect in diode end-pumped Nd:YVO4 bar laser

The thermal stress effect on various doping levels of yttrium vanadate crystal Nd:YVO4 is investigated. Diode end-pumped source was used to obtain the input-output characteristics of the vanadate crystal. The laser performance of the low doping crystal is poor since the optical conversion efficiency...
