An Er:YAG laser (erbium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet laser, erbium YAG laser) is a solid-state laser whose active laser medium is erbium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet (Er:Y 3 Al 5 O 12). Er:YAG lasers typically emit light with a wavelength of 2940 nm , which is infrared light .
Yttrium aluminium garnet (YAG, Y 3 Al 5 O 12) is a synthetic crystalline material of the garnet group. It is a cubic yttrium aluminium oxide phase, with other examples being YAlO 3 (YAP [2]) in a hexagonal or an orthorhombic, perovskite-like form, and the monoclinic Y 4 Al 2 O 9 (YAM [3]).
YAG laser may refer to two types of lasers that use yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG): Nd:YAG laser (doped with neodymium) Er:YAG laser (doped with erbium
Nd:YAG (neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet; Nd:Y 3 Al 5 O 12) is a crystal that is used as a lasing medium for solid-state lasers. The dopant , neodymium in the +3 oxidation state, Nd(III), typically replaces a small fraction (1%) of the yttrium ions in the host crystal structure of the yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG), since the two ions are ...
Erbium's principal uses involve its pink-colored Er 3+ ions, which have optical fluorescent properties particularly useful in certain laser applications. Erbium-doped glasses or crystals can be used as optical amplification media, where Er 3+ ions are optically pumped at around 980 or 1480 nm and then radiate light at 1530 nm in
A never-before-seen ore containing vast quantities of an element widely used in semiconductors has been found in China in a discovery that could propel new advances in battery technology.
While examining samples of gadolinite, Marignac found a new component in the earth then known as erbia, and he named it ytterbia, for Ytterby, the Swedish village near where he found the new component of erbium. Marignac suspected that ytterbia was a compound of a new element that he called "ytterbium".
MM underwent an endoscopic procedure to reduce her stomach size by 80% and wasn't planning to take anti-obesity medications. However, she and her doctor, Dr. Steven Batash, MD, a board-certified ...
