摘要
Lasing characteristics of a diode-pumped injection seeded Tm,Ho:GdVO4 laser is presented in this letter. A Q-switched output energy of as much as 2 mJ at 20 Hz with a pulse width of 170 ns was obtained. Single-frequency, nearly transform-limited operation of the laser was achieved by injection seeded. The high power and high beam quality of this laser make it well suited for use as cherent wind lidar transmitter on a space platform. To our knowledge, this work is the first time to investigate the injection seeded in Tm,Ho:GdVO4 to achieve Q-switched single longitudinal-mode output laser.
