In this paper we have endeavoured the design of a side pumped air-cooled Q-switched Nd:YAG Laser with uttermost efficiency. In this design has been tried to achieve a maximum and optimum transfer and overlap efficiencies. The diode lasers optimum distance from laser rod center for a maximum absorption has been found 4.85 mm with LASCAD laser software. With scrutiny of different resonator lengths and in the different stability diagram points, the best slope efficiency in the Q-switched mode by producing high overlap efficiency and in the TEMoo mode is reported equal to 10.8%.
Keywords: transfer efficiency, slope efficiency, overlaps efficiency, resonator design, LASCAD software
