THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF ND:CE:YAG CRYSTAL

Pumping at 460 nm was designed possible by the Ce 3 + co-dopant that permits transfer of excitations around to Nd 3 + ions within the YAG lattice. Comparison of both of these pumping strategies has allowed for an intensive Evaluation with the overall performance and performance of this laser process. QCW output energies as large as eighteen mJ/puls
