Description

Growth dynamics, stability of the crystallization front shape, crystal lattice structure and spectral details of [Cr4+, Nd3+]: YAG crystal, as a self Q-switching laser crystal, is described in this paper. The presence of both Nd3+ and Cr4+ ions in dodecahedral and distorted tetrahedral sites, respectively, in Y3 Al2 Al3 O12 (YAG) cubic host lattice, couples two distinctive laser effects in the same medium. The crystal was grown (L=176 mm; φi∼ 38.5 mm and φf∼28.5 mm) in Czochralski puller and the spectral bands of the two cross sections Si and Sf, were compared and studied to some details.
