Yb{sup 3+}:BaCaBO{sub 3}F: A potential new self-frequency-doubling laser material
Description:
Yb:BaCaBO{sub 3}F (Yb:BCBF) has been investigated as a new laser crystal with potential for self-frequency-doubling. An YB:BCBF laser has been pumped at 912 mm, and a measured slope efficiency of 38% has been obtained for the fundamental laser output at 1034 nm. Single crystal powders of BCBF have been compared with K*P for a relative measure of the second harmonic generating potential, yielding d{sub eff}[BCBF]= (0-66)d{sub eff}[K*P]. The growth, spectroscopy, laser performance, and linear and…
