Abstract

The microchip laser performance of Yb:YAG crystals doped with different ytterbium concentrations (10, 15, and 20 at.%) has been investigated at ambient temperature. Efficient laser oscillation for 1-mm-thick YAG doped with 10 at.% Yb3+ ions was achieved at 1030 and 1049 nm with slope efficiencies of 85 and 81%, correspondingly.
