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.
