Nd: YAG-Neodymium Doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet
Neodymium Doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet (Nd:YAG) is the earliest and most famous laser host crystal. Combining great advantages in many fundamental properties, Nd:YAG is the ubiquitous presence for near-infrared solid-state lasers and their frequency doublers, triplers, and higher order multipliers.
Advantage:
l High gain
l Low threshold
l High optical quality
l High efficiency
l Low loss at 1064nm
l Good thermal conductivity and thermal shock characteristics
l Mechanical strength
l Material characteristics that allow for various modes of operation
(CW, pulsed, Q-switched, mode locked)
Key Parameters:
