The scattering effect of Tm:YAG ceramic has been investigated and the scattering coefficient at 1064nm wavelength is measured to be 0.014cm−1. Furthermore, a high power Tm:YAG ceramic laser with a slope efficiency of 10.7% has been built, which is end-pumped at a central wavelength of 805nm. The 2-μm maximum output power is 7.1W with an optical–optical conversion efficiency of 7.2%.
