Barber, Peter C. Shardlow, Callum R. Smith and W. Andrew Clarkson 33 W radially polarized emission from a double-pass Ho:YAG thin-slab amplifier Journal of the Optical Society of America B Paper DOI: 10.1364/JOSAB.465778 This dataset contains the data used in the generation of Figures 2 and 4 in the manuscript. The figures are as follows: Fig. 2. Output power curve for the radially polarized Ho:YAG seed laser. Inset, top-left: emission spectrum at 13.2 W. Inset, bottom-right: near-field ring-shaped pump beam profile. Fig. 4. Output power curve for the Ho:YAG thin-slab amplifier with a 13.2 W seed input. Inset, top-left: simulated variation in pump and seed beam areas along the length of the crystal. Inset, bottom-right: amplifier gain versus absorbed pump.
