Abstract
We demonstrated the efficient guided laser action in a diode-pumped YAG/Nd:YAG/YAG ceramic planar waveguide produced by tape casting and vacuum sintering technology for the first time to the best of our knowledge. In the regime of continuous wave operation, a maximum output power of 840 mW corresponding to the slope efficiency of 65% was achieved. During passively Q-switched operation, by replacing the dichroic mirror with graphene-oxide based output coupler, we obtained the stable pulse trains with the shortest pulse duration of 179 ns at a pulse repetition rate of 930 kHz which resulted in the single pulse energy of 221 nJ.Entities:
