Liquid nitrogen cooled laser rod holder design

Abstract
A reliable Ho:YLF laser system has been successfully developed. Problems encountered in laser‐rod and support‐system design were unique and most difficult to solve. These problems include holding a fragile laser rod having nonisotropic thermal expantion with vacuum tight seals which can be thermally cycled. Experimentally proven solutions are described which should help others in developing new solid‐state laser systems.
