Efficient flash lamp pumped YSGG:Cr:Yb:Ho laser at 3 micron

We demonstrated that flash lamp-pumped YSGG:Cr:Yb:Ho laser at 3 /spl mu/m is feasible for practical use both in free running and Q-switched modes. This laser has high amplification gain. An output energy of 62 mJ was obtained by amplification of 10 mJ laser pulse. With improved optical components we...
