In this paper, the crystal growth and characterization of Nd:Gd3AlxGa5-xO12 (x = 0.94) (Nd:GGAG) was reported. The X-ray powder diffraction studies confirm that the Nd:Gd 3 Al x Ga 5-x O 12 crystal is isostructural with Gd 3 Ga 5 O 12 (GGG) with unit cell parameter of 1.2319 nm. The absorption and e

We describe the output performances of the 1.34-μm 4 F 3/2 → 4 I 13/2 transition in Nd-doped vanadates under in-band pumping with diode lasers at the 0.88-μm wavelength, directly into the 4 F 3/2 emitting level. An end-pumped Nd:YVO 4 crystal yielded 3.4 W of continuous-wave (CW) output power for 9.
A CW NYAB laser at 1.06 mm end-pumped by a high-power diode-laser-array has been demonstrated. At the incident pump power of 11 W, a maximum output power of 3.2 W was achieved, resulting in an optical conversion eciency of 29.1%, and average slope eciency of 37.5%. The output beam quality factor was
