Yb:YAG Crystal
Ytterbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Yb:YAG) crystal is a promising laser material which is more suitable for diode pumped laser systems than other conventional doped YAG. Yb:YAG has a much wider absorption bandwidth, which reduces the thermal control requirements when designing diode lasers. It has a longer high laser energy level lifetime and a lower thermal load per unit pump power for 3-4 times. Yb: YAG crystals are expected to replace Er: YAG crystals for high power diode lasers, as well as other related applications.
