Y YAG激光器-性质和应用

掺-钇铝石榴石(Yb:YAG) laser is one of the most promising laser-active materials that are more suitable for diode-pumping than the traditional Nd-doped systems. Yb：YAG crystals have large absorption bandwidth than the commonly used Nd:YAG crystal in order to minimize thermal management requirements for diode lasers, and facilitate longer upper-laser level lifetime and low thermal loading.

Other key properties of Yb：YAG laser include:

• 高边坡效率
• 宽吸收带
• 低分数加热
• 高光学质量
• 高导热率。

The broad absorption band of the Yb：YAG laser enables it to maintain uninterrupted pump efficiency over the thermal shift of diode output. Thus, Yb：YAG laser is ideal for high power diode-pumped lasers and other potential applications.
