752 nm wing-pumped Cr:LiSAF laser

The authors have demonstrated a LiSrAlF6:Cr(3+) (Cr:LiSAF) laser pumped at 752 nm in the longwave wing of the 4A2 to 4T2 transition pump band. Measured optical, laser, and thermal properties of LiSrAlF6-LiSrCrF6 solid solutions indicate that efficient laser pumping can be achieved in the 750-780 nm...

Zusammenfassung:The authors have demonstrated a LiSrAlF6:Cr(3+) (Cr:LiSAF) laser pumped at 752 nm in the longwave wing of the 4A2 to 4T2 transition pump band. Measured optical, laser, and thermal properties of LiSrAlF6-LiSrCrF6 solid solutions indicate that efficient laser pumping can be achieved in the 750-780 nm region, and that AlGaAs laser diode arrays may be used to make efficient high-power diode-pumped tunable solid-state lasers.
