THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF ND:CE:YAG CRYSTAL

Pumping at 460 nm was built doable because of the Ce 3 + co-dopant that enables transfer of excitations in close proximity to to Nd 3 + ions while in the YAG lattice. Comparison of both of these pumping strategies has allowed for a thorough analysis of the overall performance and effectiveness of this laser procedure. QCW output energies as high as
