Yb:YAG lasers provide a variety of advantages over diode-pumped rod-based Nd:YAG lasers, including greater beam quality, efficiency, and tunability Yb:YAG is a quasi-three-level structural crystal with very low thermal permeability, low quantum of loss, and thermal load. It has a maximum output power of 100W at 1030nm, and the output mode is TEM00. Thin-disc Yb:YAG lasers are mostly used in the engraving and printing industries . Theory Gain medium - Nd YAG A thin Yb:YAG disk. The crystal shape of the thin disk laser is a sheet kind. The crystal's cooling efficiency is extraordinarily high since the entire thin disk crystal is connected to the heat sink. Because the laser crystals are so tiny, they only absorb a little amount of the pump light each time it passes past them. To boost pumping efficiency, a parabolic mirror is placed in front of the semiconductor to generate high-power output light.
