Abstract
Direct-diode pumping of Nd-based laser materials at 880 nm offers reduced thermal loading and improved system stability. In this paper we compare absorption properties of Nd:GdVO₄, Nd:YVO₄ and Nd:KGW at 808 nm and 880 nm, and we report improvements in the performance of a high-Q, high-power self-Raman laser in Nd:GdVO₄,pumped at 879 nm.
