Examples

“Around 60-100 W is required to deflect a 60 W beam and hence the Q-switch has to be cooled.”

“The Q-switch was placed at the beam waist of the resonator as mentioned before.”

“The invention of the Q-switch quickly followed the invention of the laser discovered in 1961 and published in 1962 [3].”

“Also, the appearance of Q-switch and ultra-short pulse technology made the peak power improve greatly, and the efficiency of doubling reached 70-80%.”

“The general temporal evolution of the Q-switch is sketched in Fig. 4.2 for the case of an active Q-switch that acts on the internal cavity losses Λ.”

“We see that the timer/controller contains a 10 Hz laser Q-switch signal repeated each 100 ms (the Q-switch pulse width is 100 μs, and the lasar pulse with is 10 ns).”
