Abstract

Two types of resonator configuration, i.e. the axis-asymmetric resonator and improved off- axis resonator are used to reduce the beam parameter product in the large direction of the slab. Experiments performed with a slab (Nd,Ce):YAG laser have shown remarkable improvement of beam quality.
