Laser properties of Yb/sup 3+/-doped Sr/sub 5/(PO/sub 4/)/sub 3/F crystals

We believe that Yb/sup 3+/-doped Sr/sub 5/(PO/sub 4/)/sub 3/F (Yb:S-FAP) is particularly well adapted for low to medium power laser applications that are sensitive to overall efficiencies. Yb:S-FAP has a relatively low pump saturation intensity of 2.0 kW/cm/sup 2/ which is well suited to diode pumpi...

Zusammenfassung:	We believe that Yb/sup 3+/-doped Sr/sub 5/(PO/sub 4/)/sub 3/F (Yb:S-FAP) is particularly well adapted for low to medium power laser applications that are sensitive to overall efficiencies. Yb:S-FAP has a relatively low pump saturation intensity of 2.0 kW/cm/sup 2/ which is well suited to diode pumping since the ground state can be readily bleached.
