Figures & Tables

Fig. 1. Schematic of the Tm:CYA laser. L1 and L2 are the pump collimating and focusing lens (f=100 mm), M1 and M2 are the highly reflective concave mirrors with the radius of curvature (ROC) of 100 mm, and the M2 is also the output coupler (OC) with output ratio of 10%, M3 is the highly reflective concave mirror, with the ROC of 200 mm, DM is the dichroic mirror (HR 2000 nm/AR 790 nm). L3 is a quartz-crystal-plate filter. α is the tilted angle, which equals the incidence angle of the ray between the plate surface and laser propagation direction. The effective output is the total of the three output ports (Output1, Output2, and Output3).
