    ... for typical power-efficiency with diode pumped lasers, here some numbers: Sometimes around 2005 I had a "disk"-laser with 20Watts averaged, which was pumped with a 60Watt IR-laserdiode-module. Modern fiberlasers too needs around 3x the later "averaged" output power as combined...

    Ah, 120+ with flash lamp. Best I've come to find for the ND:YAG output of the diode pump driven 300W Avia Thor head is about 40 watts for a single head, but when searching online for typical output percentage of the pumped power for 1064 nm output, estimates are much higher. Appears I have a bad...

    ... the two old ones (120W/150W) were not DPSS, but flas-lamp pumped ... much lower efficiency, as with diodes -- I'll estimate something like 3-5%, instead of around 35% with DPSS. I've stored one of the resonator chambers and got some water-cooled 405nm-LED's with 9W and 100W output, to pump...

    You could get 120+ watts out of one single ND:YAG from the Avia Thor when pumped at 300 watts? Impressive, especially 150W. Just wanted to confirm this is possible from a three diode ring Avia Thor ND:YAG, thanks.

    ... my two old ones had 120W and 150W (salvaged and sold) ... actually have a "medical" with 60W ... but not "CW" but "averaged" :cool:

    Slide started a thread Source for Lenticular and "Fuzz" scan through materials? in Lumia
    Not exactly Lumia, but we are attempting to modify a commercially available motorized DMX controlled D/G disk. The Lumia port is pretty good but we would like to swap out a couple of the other effects for a lenticular grating that gives a sort of "3D" effect, and also looking for a Fuzz effect....

    Laser57 started a thread BUYING : Coherent Avia Thor - Optics, other parts and documentation needed in Buy/Sell/Trade
    I once found a source for the optics for a ND:YAG out of a Avia Thor, but didn't take advantage of the offer. Now looking again, if anyone can help or has anything. Chris

    Raising the dead here, been a very long time since this thread has been active.... but, might anyone know what the CW output of one ND:YAG is and what can be had with two, as originally configured?
