摘要: Transparent laser ceramics have been demonstrated to offer tremendous processing and design advantages in the diode-pumped solid-state field. Successfully developed composite Nd:YAG/Cr:YAG realized a multi-megawatt three-beam output microchip for efficient engine ignition. After progress review Giant Micro-photonics, including their wavelength extension with micro-domain controlling, we’d like discuss next generation of high-brightness lasers based on anisotropic ceramics. The capability transparent ceramics, by using new crystal orientation process large magnetic anisotropy induced 4f electrons, offers extremely high-power materials such as RE:FAP patterning multi-function integrated monolithic lasers.
