Abstract
A simple design for a quasi-three-level diode-pumped tunable unidirectional traveling-wave Nd:YAG laser operating at 946 nm is demonstrated using a ca vity consisting of two intracavity components, a Nd:YAG gain medium, and a KTP crystal. 280 GHz of tuning up to 160 mW of single-frequency output has been obtained by inserting a temperature controlled birefringent filter int o the cavity.
