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
Erbium–ytterbium and Erbium-doped glass lasers: 1.53–1.56 μm Flashlamp, laser diode Erbium-ytterbium and erbium-doped glass lasers are made in rod, plate/chip, and optical fiber form. Common uses for Er:glass lasers include rangefinding and skin resurfacing. Erbium doped fibers are commonly used as optical amplifiers for telecommunications.
YAG, yttria, yttrium lithium fluoride (LiYF 4), and yttrium orthovanadate (YVO 4) are used in combination with dopants such as neodymium, erbium, ytterbium in near-infrared lasers. [78] [79] YAG lasers can operate at high power and are used for drilling and cutting metal. [62] The single crystals of doped YAG are normally produced by the ...
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.
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 ...
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 ...
