초록

We developed LD Pumped Nd:$VVO_4$ microchip laser with the cavity length of 1mm. The microchip laser output was 87.5㎽ at the wavelength of 1063.9nm with the input power of 241㎽ at the wavelength of 809nm. The slope efficiency was 40.7% and the threshold input power was 31.1㎽. We have also defined input power limit for the single longitudinal mode operation theoretically. It was 2.5 times larger than that of threshold input intensity. According to the results of simulation, the Nd:YVO$_4$ microchip laser can be operated with the maximum output of 15㎽ for the single longitudinal mode up to the input power of 77.75㎽.
