Highly doped Yb:YAG Thin-Disk Lasers: A Comparison between Single Crystal and Ceramic Active Media

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Despite the very similar spectroscopic properties, efficient lasing in the thin-disk laser set-up has not been possible for highly doped Yb:YAG single crystals so far, whereas 20% Yb:YAG ceramics display a 60.6% slope efficiency.
