摘要
An Er3+:Yb3+:LuAl3(BO3)(4) crystal doped with 24.1 at.% Yb3+ and 1.1 at.% Er3+ ions was grown by the flux method. The polarized spectroscopic properties related to the operation of 1.5-1.6 mu m laser of the crystal were evaluated at room temperature. The laser properties of a 0.7-mm-thick, c-cut crystal were investigated in diode-end-pumped hemispherical and plano-plano cavities, respectively. Compared with those of Er3+:Yb3+:YAl3(BO3)(4) crystal obtained under similar experimental conditions, higher maximum output peak power, higher slope efficiency, and lower threshold were achieved in the Er3+:Yb3+:LuAl3(BO3)(4) crystal.
