We realized a 101 W single-frequency continuous wave (CW) all-solid-state 1064 nm laser by means of mode selfreproduction in this Letter. Two identical laser crystals were placed into a resonator to relax the thermal lens of the laser crystals, and an imaging system was employed to realize cavity mode self-reproduced at the places of the laser crystals. Single-frequency operation of the resonator was realized by employing a new kind of high extinction ratio optical diode based on the terbium scandium aluminum garnet crystal to realize a stable unidirectional operation of the laser, together with introducing a large enough nonlinear loss to the resonator to effectively suppress the multi-mode oscillation and mode hopping of the laser. As a result, a 101 W single-frequency 1064 nm laser in a single-ring resonator was achieved with 42.3% optical efficiency. The measured power stability for 8 h and the beam quality were better than 0.73% and 1.2, respectively.Single-frequency continuous wave (CW) solid-state lasers with excellent output performances, including perfect beam quality, high stability, and low intensity noise have important and widespread applications in scientific research and high-tech fields of quantum optics and quantum information, atom physics, and high-precision measurements. In particular, the successful observation of the gravitational wave on September 14, 2015 [1], made the high-power single-frequency CW laser become a star, since it played a major role in the laser-based Michelson interferometers and helped humans to precisely observe and study the universe. To date, several techniques have been developed for the realization of single-frequency laser, including a monolithic non-planar ring oscillator in a magnetic field [2], short cavity with Fabry-Perot (F-P) etalon, ring cavity with an optical diode (OD) [3], etc. Compared to other techniques, a ring resonator, combined with an OD and other mode-selected elements, was an effective method to achieve a highly stable single-frequency laser with high output power and perfect mode quality. Because both the spatial hole burning effect and the non-lasing oscillation of the laser can be effectively Letter Vol. 43, No. 24 / 15 December 2018 / Optics Letters 6017 0146-9592/18/246017-04 Journal
