Abstract
A monolithic, side pumped, passively Q-switched, solid-state laser () includes a laser resonator structure () that includes a laser gain medium () having an output face bonded to a passive Q-switch (). The gain medium () has a side face (A) for receiving pump light. The pump light is preferably generated by a laser diode array (). In a further embodiment, a non-linear optical material (), such as frequency doubling KTP, is optically coupled to an output face of the Q-switch for providing output wavelength conversion. A method is also disclosed for fabricating the monolithic, side pumped, passively Q-switched, solid-state laser. Techniques are included for providing compensation from thermal aberrations during operation of the laser.
