Abstract
A novel study to determine the optimum crystal and resonator parameters for Cr4+ doped lasers subjected to lifetime thermal loading was permormed. The comparison of the results of lasing threshold, pump absorption saturation, and power efficiency measurements was done with the predictions of a theoretical model to determine the laser cross sections. Using the best-fit cross-section values, numerical optimization studies were carried out to determine the optimum crystal absorption, resonator reflectivity, and crystal length which maximized the output power.
