Abstract

The use of waveguide structures in laser crystal media has the advantage of optical confinement and the consequent low threshold oscillation and highly pumped amplification. Among various solid-state laser media, neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) has strong potential for application to diode- pumped waveguide lasers and is also an ideal candidate for integrated optoelectronics applications such as Q-switched microchip lasers,¹ which can be realized by monolithically combining their waveguide lasers with other optical components on the same substrate.
