All-solid-state gain-switched Cr:LiSAF laser

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The advent of new vibronic laser media, such as Cr:LiSAF and Cr:LiCAF, has brought about opportunities for the development of diode-pumped all-solid-state lasers for the generation of tunable nanosecond-duration pulses in the near infrared.1 One major advantage of these new materials over to the existing vibronic medium, Ti:sapphire, is that their absorption bands are shifted into the region accessible by red-laser-diodes. Although progress in red laser diode technology is rapidly advancing, the beam quality of these sources remains poor.
