英文摘要：

Laser diodes have attracted great attention in all solid state lasers because they guarantee a compact,cost-efficient,and reliable system.Ytterbium（Yb） doped rare-earth garnet Y3Ga5O12（Yb：YGG） crystal is one of the ideal new laser gain materials because of the wide emission band and excellent thermal conductivity.According to the rate equation of quasi-three-level system,the output characteristic of longitudinally pumped continuous wave（CW） Yb：YGG solid state laser was theoretically analyzed.The relationship between incident pump power and ouput power based on output coupler（OC） was numerically calculated without considering the re-absorption loss.Based on this work,a LD pumped Yb：YGG CW laser was experimental carried out with three different OC.With the optimum transmission 6%（OC）,laser average output power up to 2.3 W was obtained with the incident power 6.8 W,which was well agreement with the numerical result.The laser operated at central wavelength of 1 037 nm with maximum slope efficiency of 71.8%.
