Problems solved by technology

Double-doped Cr, Nd:YAG and Cr, Yb:YAG transparent ceramics prepared by traditional solid-state reaction can be used as self-Q-switching laser gain media, however, Cr and Nd ions (or Cr and Yb ions) enter the yttrium aluminum pomegranate at the same time YAG (YAG) unit cells severely aggravate the lattice distortion, thereby affecting the optical quality of ceramic materials
[0004] So far, no yttrium-aluminum-garnet-based laser-transparent ceramic material that can be used as a self-Q-switching laser gain medium and can effectively reduce the lattice distortion caused by the simultaneous entry of multiple rare earth ions into the unit cell and its Preparation
