Abstract

The optical scheme and the design of a high-power YAG:Nd3+ laser, which generates radiation pulses of nanosecond duration at wavelengths of 1064 nm (0.8 J), 532 nm (160 mJ), and 266 nm (40 mJ) with destroyed coherence in a fiber and a smoothed intensity distribution in the beam cross section, are described. The processes that affect the generation efficiency of decoherenized radiation are considered.
