Experimental Investigations on Wavefront Distortion of LD-Pumped Neodymium-Doped Silica-Glass Rod with High Thermal Shock Parameter

The characterization of a laser diode (LD)-pumped neodymium-doped silica glass (NDSG) laser is here described. The gain performance and wavefront distortion were measured, and the thermal toughness and uniformity distribution of the material were experimentally observed. At a pumping frequency of 1...
