<p>A method is for operating a pump light source having a diode laser, which provides a pump light, in particular for optical pumping of a laser device. The pump light source is activated in a first mode of operation such that the diode laser assumes a predefinable target temperature, which lies in a range of a maximum of the coefficient of absorption of the laser-active solid of the laser device. In a second mode of operation, following the first mode of operation, the pump light source is activated such that it generates pump light to build up a population inversion in the laser-active solid of the laser device. In a third mode of operation, following the second mode of operation, the pump light source is activated such that it generates pump light to activate a laser operation in the laser device, the activation time in the third mode of operation being less than an activation time in the second mode of operation, and/or an activation current in the third mode of operation being greater than an activation current in the second mode of operation.</p> |
