  • Abstract
    End pumped Nd:YAG ring laser with electro-optical Q-switcher was built. Pumping of each laser rod is provided by 45 Watt laser diode module coupled in high-brightness fiber. Single-frequency and unidirectional performance of laser is provided with injection seeding. End overheating of active rod was reduced by using low-concentration active medium. Thermo-optic distortions were compensated.
