Summary

Single crystals of α - K Gd(WO₄)₂: Yb⁺³ appear to be a highly efficient laser environment for creation of compact femtosecond lasers.

Description

Single crystals of α - K Gd(WO₄)₂: Yb⁺³ are intended for creation of optically homogeneous active laser elements.
Specifications.
The crystalline matrix of α - K Gd(WO₄)₂: Yb⁺³ allows you to reach the concentration of active centres of Yb⁺³ up to 8-10 at.%, which makes it possible to get high amplification at low excitation energies.
