摘要: Abstract The laser properties of Cr 2+ :ZnSe crystals obtained by diffusion doping method was investigated under pumping the 1.6 μm output a Nd:YAG laser-pumped Ba(NO 3 ) 2 Raman laser. A slope efficiency 45%, threshold 12 μJ and round-trip passive losses around 9% were measured for best samples.
