Abstract
Based on the recent development of diode lasers covering the spectral range from 800 to 1000 nm, we report in this work efficient laser emission at 1.06 and 1.34-μm in highly-doped Nd:YAG under diode-pumping into the emitting level. In conclusion, the results of this work demonstrate that diode laser pumping into the emitting level of concentrated Nd laser materials is a solution for construction of efficient micro-lasers and for scaling to high power.
