Abstract
In this Letter, for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, a pulse and CW laser based on an Er-doped (Er:GGAG) active medium emitting laser radiation at 2.8 μm are presented. With the longitudinal diode pumping, the maximal output energy of 4.9 mJ and slope efficiency of 13.5% in the pulse regime were reached. Using the birefringent plate, the line tunability of Er:GGAG at several spectral bands of 2800–2822 nm, 2829–2891 nm, and 2917–2942 nm were obtained.
