The main contents can be summarized as follows:
     1. The development of LD pumped solid state lasers are simple reviewed, and some properties of nonlinear crystals such as LBO, KTP, CLBO and BBO were introduction. The theory of AO Q-switched, the theory of nonlinear frequency doubling and the principle of nonlinear phase matching were analyzed.
     2. Experiment study the properties of LD diode pumped Q-switched Nd: GdVO_4 crystals 1342nm laser. Under the incident pump power of 9.2W, the maximum output power at 1342nm was obtained to be 1.6W, with the repetition frequency of 10 kHz and coupled transmission of output mirror 15%, the pulse width was measured to be 35ns.
     3. By using the KTP or LBO as the intracvity frequency doubler, a compact and efficient diode-end-pumped AO Q-switched Nd: GdVO_4 red laser was demonstrated. Such as using the LBO crystal, under the incident pump power of 9.2 W, the maximum average output power at 671 nm was obtained to be 1.36 W at repetition frequency of 15 kHz, with the corresponding optical-optical conversion efficiency of 14.8%. At the same incident pump power, the shortest pulse width at 671 nm was obtained to be 28 ns at the repetition frequency of 5 kHz, and the average output power of 0.93 W. The single pulse energy and peak power are calculated to be 186μJ and 6.65 kW, respectively.
