摘要We investigate a high-energy good-beam-quality krypton-lamp-pumped pulsed Nd:YAG solid-state laser with one pump cavity. The symmetrical resonator laser is developed and is rated at 80J with beam parameter product 12mm mrad. The total system electro-optics efficiency of the lamp-pumped YAG laser is as high as 3.3% and the stability of output energy is ±2% with pulse width tunable between 0.1ms and 10ms. The experimental results are consistent with the theoretical analysis and simulation.
