Amplifiers based on Cr-doped optical ceramics
1995
Broadly tunable solid state lasers in the near infrared can be created using Cr4+ ions doped in various host lattices. Cr:forsterite and Cr:YAG span much of the spectral region between 1.2 and 1.56 micrometers . New hosts are required for powerful operation at 1.32 micrometers . Novel laser structures may be possible using optical nanocrystals embedded in refractive-index matched hosts. Waveguides with net gain are possible using Cr-doped nanocrystals.© (1995) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.
