【Abstract】 The (Cr,Nd)∶YAG crystal was grown by the standard Czochralski method. There are four absorption bands centered at 0.53, 0.59, 0.75 and 0.81 μm corresponding to the absorption of Nd 3+ . Also, there is a broad absorption band from 900 nm to 1 200 nm corresponding to the 3 A 2 3 T 1 transition of Cr 4+ . By using Ti∶sapphire laser as a pumping source, the self_ Q _switched laser of monolithic (Cr, Nd)∶YAG crystal is demonstrated and the output Q _switched traces are very stable single_longitudinal_mode, the threshold pumping power is 63 mW , the pulse duration is 8 ns and the slope efficiency is as high as 24%. The pulse width is constant while the pulse repetition rates are varied with the variation of the pumping power. The use of laser host crystal co_doped with saturable absorber and laser gain medium can lead to the development of monolithic self_ Q _switched solid state lasers.更多还原
