Diode-pumped, 220 W ultra-thin slab Nd:YAG laser with near-diffraction limited beam quality

Summary from only given. The novel Nd:YAG slab laser configuration we report here makes use of the fact that TEM/sub 00/ mode operation can be readily attained in the thin direction without beam zig-zag if the slab width is less than about 1 mm.
