摘要: We report on the fabrication of planar waveguide in Nd:YVO4 crystal by using swift Ar8+ ion irradiation. At room temperature continuous wave (cw) laser oscillation at wavelength ~1067 nm has been realized through optical pump 808 with a low threshold 9.3 mW. The slope efficiency system is 8.5%. optical-to-optical conversion 6.6%.
