In order to get a compact watt-level high peak power UV laser, a compact plane-plane linear cavity, LD end pumped acoustic-optic Q-switched configuration was used. from which 1.03W-6.1W 1064nm IR laser at 1 kHz-50kHz repetition rate was obtained. With a LBO crystal employed to generate the second and third harmonic wave, the maximum output power of 1.08W UV at 10kHz repetition rate was achieved with peak power up to 12kW.The maximum peak power of UV laser was 17kW at 5kHz.The resules show that the practical application was satisfied in many fields.
