Highly efficient cw 2-μm laser

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

Thuilium doped laser hosts are studied for high-power cw 2-μm lasers. When we used a Ti:Al2O3 laser as a pump source for a Tm:YAG laser, 1.2 W of 2-μm laser output was observed with 2.8 W of pump power. The effects of energy transfer on laser performance will be modeled.
