Erbium and holmium lasers pumped with Nd:YAG

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

Diode-pumped neodymium lasers can be used to efficiently pump other rare earth lasers. Intracavity pumping of the ytterbium-sensitized erbium phosphate glass laser gave 6% conversion of 800 nm laser diode arrays to 1.54 μm. Techniques used for pumping 2.9-μm Ho:GGG lasers are also discussed.
