Laser Crystal Cr,Tm,Ho:YAG


Cr,Tm,Ho:YAG crystal products are high-efficiency laser crystals pumped by xenon lamps or diodes. They are laser crystals with good comprehensive performance.
Cr,Tm,Ho:YAG wavelength is 2.1 μm. The pump source mainly comes from the flash energy absorbed by Cr3+, Ho3+ is the working ion, and Tm3+ acts as the intermediary for energy transfer. two point one μm laser can be well absorbed by water, easy to penetrate the atmosphere, and safe for eyes.
In addition, for 3-5 μm mid infrared optical parametric oscillator, 2.1 μm laser is an ideal pump source. Cr,Tm,Ho:YAG crystal has the characteristics of wide absorption band, high slope efficiency, can be pumped by flash lamp or diode, operates well at room temperature and works in a wavelength range relatively safe to human eyes. Therefore, it is widely used in medical, lidar and other fields.
