Paper Abstract
This paper presents a Q-switched Er:YAG laser generating in near infrared range. In this laser system Pockels cell (as an active switch) was applied. For the optimal repetition rate of 10 Hz and maximal pumping energy of 62 J over 15 mJ of the ouptut laser energy was achieved. The pulses generated were characterized by time duration of 115 ns corresponding with 130 kW peak power. Non-linear absorbers allowing to build an effective losses modulator are also discussed.
