Classification:


Nd:YVO4 has become popular host crystal for diode pumping among the current commercial laser crystals because of its high gain,low threshold and high absorption coefficients at pumping wavelengths,which result from the excellent fit of the neodymium dopant in the crystal lattice.This is mainly for Nd:YVO4's absorption and emission features surpassing Nd:YAG Pumped by laser diodes.

 

PRODUCT FEATURE

Five times larger absorption efficient over a wide pumping bandwidth around 808nm

Much lower dependency on pumping wavelength and a strong tendency to the single mode output

As large as three times larger stimulated emission cross-section at the lasing wavelength of 1064nm

Lower lasing threshold and higher slope efficiency

Linearly polarized emission as the uniaxial crystal with large birefringence
