✦ Synopsis
Nd,Mg:LiTaO 3 single crystal with high optical quality was grown by Czochralski technique. Absorption and fluorescence spectra were investigated. The peak absorption cross section at 806.5 nm and peak emission cross section at 1091 nm are 6.81×10 -20 and 3.28×10 -20 cm 2 , respectively. The fluorescence lifetime was measured to be 129 μs. With a laser-diode as the pump source, a maximum 375 mW continuous-wave laser output at 1083 nm has been obtained with a slope efficiency of 7.2% with respect to the pump power.

With a laser-diode (LD) as the pump source, continuous-wave (cw) laser performance at 1.33 μm of Nd:CNGG and Nd:CLNGG crystals was demonstrated for the first time. The maximum power of 158 mW and 141 mW from Nd:CNGG and Nd:CLNGG lasers were obtained with the corresponding optical conversion efficien
