Experimental measurements and finite-element modelling of thermal effects in Yb3+ doped sesquioxide thin disk lasers
2010
A modelling and an experimental study of thermal lensing in Yb 3+ doped sesquioxide ceramics are presented here.
Wavefront measurements realised in various laser media using a Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor enable us to study
the evolution of thermal lensing versus absorbed pump power at various temperatures. A computation of thermal effects
is then investigated in the framework of the finite-elements CASTEM code. At last, we propose to explain our thermal
lensing measurements from simulation results.
