摘要

In this paper, the study of a switchable electro-optic Q-switched Nd:YAlO(3) laser emitting 1080 and 1342 nm wavelength was demonstrated. The two-wavelength lasers were eradiated by a Nd:YAlO(3) crystal pumped by a xenon lamp. Two KD*P Pockels cells were adopted as Q-switches. The output energy of 277.2 mJ at 1080 nm wavelength with a pulse width of 20 ns and that of 190.67 mJ at 1342 nm wavelength with a pulse width of 40 ns was obtained, respectively, in our experiment.
