Abstract

A diode-pumped rubidium laser with an optical slope efficiency of 69% has been constructed. This study utilized a narrow-line diode laser pump source for the experiments. The trade space study included optimization of various parameters such as lasing cell composition, temperature, and output coupler reflectivities. The results of the experimental study are given.
