Abstract

The principal spectroscopic and lasing characteristics of a Tm(15%):KY(WO{sub 4}){sub 2} crystal were investigated. The transition cross sections, the luminescence quantum yield, and the lifetime and the nonlinear depopulation coefficient of the upper active state were also determined. The slope efficiency of lasing at the 1950 nm wavelength was 45%. The feasibility of tuning in the spectral range 1850 - 1950 nm was demonstrated in principle. (lasers)

Luminescent and lasing characteristics of heavily doped Yb{sup 3+}:KY(WO{sub 4}){sub 2} crystals

Journal Article Kisel', V; Troshin, A; Shcherbitskii, V; ... - Quantum Electronics (Woodbury, N.Y.)

The luminescence decay times are measured taking into account reabsorption for KY(WO{sub 4}){sub 2}:Yb(KYW:Yb) crystals with atomic concentrations of active ions from 0.2% to 30%. The radiative lifetime of Yb{sup 3+} ions was measured to be 233 {mu}s. The cw output power of 1.46 and 1.62 W was achieved with the slope efficiency 52% and 47% for Yb:KYW lasers with the atomic concentration of Yb{sup 3+} ions equal to 10% and 30%, respectively. Using a semiconductor mirror with a saturable absorber (SESAM) in the passive mode-locking regime, pulses of duration 194 and 180 fs were obtained at wavelengths of 1042more »« less

Two-micron lasing is obtained for the first time on the {sup 3}F{sub 4} {yields} {sup 3}H{sub 6} transition of Tm{sup 3+} ions in diode-pumped crystals of mixed sodium - lanthanum - gadolinium tungstate Tm:NaLa{sub 1/2}Gd{sub 1/2}(WO{sub 4}){sub 2} (C{sub Tm} = 3.6 at %) (3.6Tm : NLGW) and molybdate Tm:NaLa{sub 1/3}Gd{sub 2/3}(MoO{sub 4}){sub 2} (C{sub Tm} = 4.8 at %) (4.8Tm : NLGM). For the 3.6Tm : NLGW crystal, the quasi-cw laser output power exceeded 200 mW and the slope efficiency (with respect to absorbed pump power) for the {pi}- and {sigma}-polarisations at wavelengths of 1908 and 1918 nm wasmore »« less

Lasing is obtained in Tm{sup 3+}-doped sodium-gadolinium tungstate NaGd(WO{sub 4}){sub 2} crystals longitudinally pumped by pulses from a laser diode bar. The slope lasing efficiency is 16%.

25%Eu : KGd(WO{sub 4}){sub 2} laser crystal: spectroscopy and lasing on the {sup 5}D{sub 0}{yields}{sup 7}F{sub 4} transition

Journal Article Bagaev, Sergei; Dashkevich, V; Orlovich, Valentin; ... - Quantum Electronics (Woodbury, N.Y.)

25%Eu : KGd(WO{sub 4}){sub 2} crystal is grown by a modified Czochralski method and its spectral and lasing properties are studied. Generation of stimulated emission in this crystal on the {sup 5}D{sub 0}{yields}{sup 7}F{sub 4} transition of the Eu{sup 3+} ion is obtained, as far as we know, for the first time. The laser operates at room temperature at a wavelength of {approx}703 nm under pumping into the {sup 7}F{sub 0}{yields}{sup 5}D{sub 1} absorption band of the europium ion by the second harmonic of a Q-switched Nd : KGW laser ({lambda}{sub pump}= 533.6 nm).
