Abstract
The 5 mJ output energy of Nd:WO, and 43% slope efficiency were obtaine d in free-running mode. Single frequency Q-switched generation was obt ained applying prelasing technique with LiNbO3 electrooptical Q-switch . A peak power of above 170 W in 5.6 ns pulse duration was achieved in preliminary results.
