2. Nd:YAG laser - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nd:YAG_laser

   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 ...

4. Yttrium aluminium garnet - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yttrium_aluminium_garnet

   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]).

5. Diode-pumped solid-state laser - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diode-pumped_solid-state_laser

   Neodymium-doped solid state lasers continue to be the laser source of choice for industrial applications. Direct pumping of the upper Nd laser level at 885-nm (rather than at the more traditional broad 808-nm band) offers the potential of improved performance through a reduction in the lasing quantum defect, thereby improving system efficiency ...

6. Neodymium-doped yttrium lithium fluoride - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neodymium-doped_yttrium...

   Neodymium-doped yttrium lithium fluoride (Nd:YLF) is a lasing medium for arc lamp-pumped and diode-pumped solid-state lasers. The YLF crystal (LiYF 4) is naturally birefringent, and commonly used laser transitions occur at 1047 nm and 1053 nm. [1] It is used in Q-switched systems in part due to its relatively long fluorescence lifetime.

7. Neodymium - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neodymium

   Neodymium is a fairly common element in the Earth's crust for being a rare-earth metal. Most rare-earth metals are less abundant. Neodymium is classified as a lithophile under the Goldschmidt classification, meaning that it is generally found combined with oxygen. Although it belongs to the rare-earth metals, neodymium is not rare at all.

8. Transparent ceramics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transparent_ceramics

   Neodymium-doped YAG (Nd:YAG) has proven to be one of the best solid-state laser materials. Its indisputable dominance in a broad variety of laser applications is determined by a combination of high emission cross section with long spontaneous emission lifetime, high damage threshold, mechanical strength, thermal conductivity, and low thermal ...

9. Neodymium-doped gadolinium orthovanadate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neodymium-doped_gadolinium...

   Neodymium-doped gadolinium orthovanadate, typically abbreviated as Nd:GdVO 4, is one of the active laser medium for diode laser-pumped solid-state lasers. Several advantages over Nd:YAG crystals include a larger emission cross-section , a pump power threshold, a wider absorption bandwidth, and a polarized output.
