This report documents the study and construction of a Diode-Pumped Solid State Laser (DPSSL), using Neodymium (Nd3+) doped calcium tantalum gallium garnet (Nd:CTGG) crystal as the active gain medium. A fiber coupled laser diode operating at a wavelength of 808nm is used as the pump source. A simple...
