Abstract
We report a continuous-wave Ho:YAG thin-disk laser operating at the hundred-watt power level. In multimode operation, the laser delivers a maximum output power of 230 W, with a slope efficiency of 35.9% and an optical-to-optical conversion efficiency of 35.3%. In single-mode operation, an output power of 152.3 W is achieved, with beam quality factors M2 of 1.08 and 1.06 in the horizontal and vertical directions, respectively.
