Title:
ULTRA-BROAD BANDWIDTH LASER GLASSES FOR SHORT-PULSED HIGH PEAK POWER LASERS
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2014105155
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide glasses for use in solid laser applications, particularly, short-pulsed high peak power laser applications.
The invention relates to a method for broadening the emission bandwidth of rare earth ions used as lasing ions in solid laser glass mediums, especially phosphate-based glass compositions, using Nd and Yb as co-dopants. The invention further relates to a laser system using a Nd-doped and Yb-doped phosphate laser glass, and a method of generating a laser beam pulse using such a laser system.
