We fabricated a diode-side pumped high power Nd:YAG laser with a gold coated flow tube(diameter of 10mm) and three sets of 140W diode bar. The diameter of Nd:YAG rod was 6mm and its length was 130mm. We obtained 130W cw power from a linear resonator with an 11% output coupler, which corresponds to the slope efficiency of 43% and the optical efficiency of 31%. The measured beam quality factor(M$^2$) reached about 85 which is fairly large due to the large size of the rod. Thermal lensing of the rod was measured to be 5.3-7.4D/$kW_{pump}$ when the laser was operating.
