摘要
The self-stimulated Raman laser operation of a Nd: Lu0.99La0.01VO4 new crystal is presented. A 0.3 at.% Nd doped Lu0.99La0.01VO4 crystal in dimensions 3x3x20mm(3) is adopted as the self-stimulated Raman crystal. At a pulse repetition frequency of 14 kHz, average output powers of 240mW for the first Stokes light at 1181nm and 660mW for the fundamental light at 1068nm are obtained under an incident pump power of 5.5 W. The pulse widths of the first Stokes light and fundamental light are about 15 and 25 ns. The slope efficiencies are about 12.7% and 18.8% with respect to the incident pump power.
