β¦ Synopsis
Polarized absorption spectra of Nd:LuVO 4 crystal were measured at room temperature. The optical parameters of Ο polarization and Ο polarization were calculated by Judd-Ofelt theory. Meanwhile, the phenomenological intensity parameters: β¦ 2 , β¦ 4 , and β¦ 6 were obtained, then the parameters were used to calculate the luminescence parameters of Nd:LuVO 4 crystal, including oscillator strengths, fluorescence branching ratio, radiative lifetime and integrated emission cross-sections. Experiments of a-cut and c-cut Nd:LuVO 4 lasers were also performed, and opt-opt conversion efficiency and slope efficiency were 40.3%, 50.5% for a-cut and 23.6%, 30.9% for c-cut, respectively.

A Nd-doped lutetium orthovanadate Nd:LuVO 4 crystal has been grown using a modified Czochralski method. The thermal properties of this crystal have been studied by measuring the thermal expansion, specific heat and thermal diffusivity. The thermal expansion coefficients are Ξ± 11 = 1.7 Γ 10 -6 , Ξ± 22
We report diode pumped continuous-wave (CW) laser performance achieved with two types of composite Nd:LuVO 4 crystals operating at 1.06 ΞΌm. The maximum output power of 17.2 W was obtained with an optical conversion efficiency of 47.3% with respect to the incident pump power of 36.4 W, and the corres
A Nd:LYSO crystal has been grown by the Czochralski technique. The cell parameters were analyzed with X-ray diffraction (XRD). The Judd-Ofelt intense parameters Ξ© 2,4,6 were obtained to be 2.65, 5.75, and 7.37Γ10 -20 cm 2 , respectively. The absorption and emission cross sections and the branching r
We present for the first time laser architecture to obtain continuous-wave yellow radiation at 594 nm. The choice of crystals (Nd:LuVO 4 for emission at 1343 nm and Nd:YAG for emission at 1064 nm) was guided by laser performance. A part of the pump power was then absorbed by the Nd:LuVO4 crystal, th
