High-efficiency solar laser pumping by a ring-array concentrator

Aiming to significantly improve solar laser efficiency, in this thesis, a 20 mm length 5.5 mm diameter Nd:YAG single-crystal rod can be efficiently pumped by highly concentrated solar radiation through a modified ring-array concentrator. Composed of six coaxial parabolic reflective rings and a small...
