  • Abstract
    The microchip Nd:YAG laser Q-switched by the epitaxial film of the Cr4+:YAG saturable absorber is considered. The optimal values of the absorber initial transmission and the output mirror reflectivity are being optimized in order to reach the maximum of the energy at the laser pulse
