With a laser-diode (LD) as the pump source, continuous-wave (cw) laser performance at 1.33 μm of Nd:CNGG and Nd:CLNGG crystals was demonstrated for the first time. The maximum power of 158 mW and 141 mW from Nd:CNGG and Nd:CLNGG lasers were obtained with the corresponding optical conversion efficiencies of 1.3% and 1.5%, and slope efficiencies of 2.0% and 2.9%, respectively. The difference between the laser performance of Nd:CNGG and Nd:CLNGG crystals was also discussed.
