Abstract
Summary from only given. This communication describes a diode pumped laser based on innovative pumping laser heads, overall cooled by conduction. The all-solid cooling is efficient and robust (no corrosion, leak or vibration due to water circulation). Moreover, the thermal load is conducted from the laser to a cooling plate decoupled from the laser, which can be adapted according to the application without affecting performances.
