    • Thermal lens study in diode pumped Ng- and Np-cut Nd:KGd(WO4)2 laser crystals 

      Loiko, P. A.; Yumashev, K. V.; Kuleshov, N. V.; Savitski, V. G.; Calvez, S.; Burns, D.; Pavlyuk, A. A. (Optical Society of America, 2009)
      A comparative study of thermal lensing effect in diode laser pumped Ng- and Np-cut Nd:KGd(WO4)2 (KGW) laser crystals was performed for laser emission polarized along the principle refractive axis, Nm. The thermal lens in the Ng-cut Nd: KGW was found to be weakly astigmatic with a positive refractive power for both the Nm- and Np-directions. For Np -cut Nd:KGW, strong astigmatism ...
