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%. }, URL = {http://opsi.ir/article-1-806-en.html}, eprint = {http://opsi.ir/article-1-806-en.pdf}, journal = {Accepted and Presented Articles of OPSI Conferences}, doi = {}, year = {2015} }
