TY - JOUR A1 - Perchermeier, Julian A1 - Wittrock, Ulrich T1 - Precise measurements of the thermo-optical aberrations of an Yb:YAG thin-disk laser T2 - Opt. Lett. N2 - We report on interferometric measurements of the thermo-optical aberrations of the laser medium of an Yb:YAG thin-disk laser in pumped and cw lasing conditions at several pump-power levels with a mean repeatability of 5 nm. These measurements build the basis for future intracavity compensation of the aberrations with our deformable mirror in order to improve the fundamental-mode efficiency.
