A high average output power (Pout) self-Q-switched (SQS) Tm-doped YAlO3 (Tm:YAP) slab laser was achieved using the ground-state resorption effect. A theoretical model of the end-pumped slab crystal was used to predict the temperature and stress distributions in Tm:YAP. Stable SQS pulse trains were obtained using input mirrors of the three curvatures. Under a curvature of 500 mm, a Pout of 15.72 W and a pulse width of 1.08 μs were obtained with an incident pump power of 66.80 W, corresponding to a slope conversion of 57.1 %. In addition, the Pout of the SQS laser was stable, and a root mean square stability of 0.45 % was acquired in an hour. The laser exhibited a good beam quality factor M2 < 1.3. According to our knowledge, this laser has the highest Pout, slope efficiency and beam quality compared with other SQS lasers in the 2 μm band.
