演讲摘要：

With the development of the laser industry, the research of energy-saving, automatic, and high-quality laser crystal growth equipment has become the key to its upstream industry. The core issue of this high-energy-consuming laser crystal industry is completing high-quality crystal growth with low energy consumption. Moreover, current crystal growth equipment highly depends on manual operation, resulting in a spotty quality of laser crystals. For the sake of energy saving and full automation, we not only reduce the power consumption by half, but also develop the melting point capture, automatic body control, and other automatic crystal growth technology which used to rely on the artificial experience; this effort is significant for the development of the laser crystal industry. To date, we have developed a series of microchip lasers with high performance. Those microchip laser scan produce 1 μm output pulses with their repetition rates variable from 1 Hz to 10 kHz, pulse energy ranged from several μJ to 1mJ, pulse duration down to 300 ps, and hence peak power up to 1MW. More than 10W average output power can be achieved with further amplifications. We will give a brief review about this work in the presentation.
