Abstract

We report the gain measurement of a laser diode pumped Tm:YAG laser by using a cavity loss method. The maximum gain and the saturation parameter of a single-longitudinal-mode Tm:YAG laser were determined to be 0.04 cm^-1 and 13 kW/cm², respectively, were obtained in a single- longitudinal-mode.
