摘要: The preferential free running laser wavelength at room temperature for different axes cuts of Tm3+-doped YAP and YLF is comparatively analyzed in this paper. polarized gain spectrum Tm:YAP Tm:YLF with product values concentration crystal length theoretically calculated under various cavity output mirror transmissions. From the spectrum, it straightforwardly determines a given light polarization. In addition, rate equation model further used to compare performance both some common artificially selected oscillating wavelengths, including 1.99 1.94 μm Tm:YAP, 1.89, 1.91, Tm:YLF, respectively. To achieve an expected acceptable performance, our analysis presented here very beneficial one choose most suitable axis cut crystal.
