14-W continuous-wave mode-locked Nd:YAG laser.
A new design procedure for solid-state laser resonators operating in the fundamental mode is applied to the optimization of the mode volume and stability of a cw Nd:YAG laser. The optimized laser provides the highest power in the mode-locking regime reported to date.
