Though controlling the coating reflectivity and intracavity diffraction loss, in the four cavity mirror configuration, a dual-wavelength continuous wave (cw) diode-side-pumped Nd:YAG laser that generates simultaneously at wavelengths of 1064 nm and 1319 nm is demonstrated. The relationship between power ratio of the two wavelengths and cavity length is studied. The cw dual-wavelength output power reaches 85 W when the average pump power is more than 500 W. The output power of respective wavelength exceeds 40 W, which is the best record as we know.
