Description

Lasing parameters of a mixed Nd3+:Gd0.7Y0.3VO4 vanadate crystal emitting at the 913-nm 4F3/2-4I9/2 laser transition are studied. The output power of up to 600 mW was obtained upon longitudinal diode pumping for the absolute and slope laser efficiencies of ∼13% and ∼17%, respectively. (lasers)
