  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. A way is presented to increase the pump power, the Q-factor (ratio between the power inside the cavity to the power dissipated from the cavity) and the interaction volume between the pump beam and the mode of the cavity. We designed new microchip lasers with long cavity length. For example, one of them has Nd:YAG and another Cr/sup 4+/:YAG.
