Abstract A flashlamp-pumped Cr:LiSAF laser system with a voltage controlled Q-switch structure in the cavity is designed. A dual-wavelength and dual-pulse tunable laser output is gained. The relation of laser output behavior with input energy is studied experimentally. The output is dual-pulsed with the energy of the 32mJ/pulse producing the total output energy of 64mJ and the pulse width is about 27ns at 850nm. Then, we use one LBO crystal as the frequency doubling crystal to obtain a dual wavelength (448.1nm and 449.15nm) and dual pulse laser. The output for one wavelength is about 10.3mJ and the line width is less than 0.02nm.
