Abstract
Considering the impact of the pump focal position on the output characteristics in dual-wavelength lasers with coaxially arranged dual crystals, we study on the thermal effects based on two coaxial Nd:YVO4 crystals with variable pump focal position and incident pump power theoretically and experimentally. The output characteristics and thermal focal lengths were discussed at different cavity lengths using the resonator theories and compared with the monolithic crystal. The performance of the scheme with two discrete crystals when the focal position locates deep at different cavity lengths was also researched and the advantages over single crystal were verified.
