Mid-infrared spectral properties and laser performance of bulk Tb-doped selenide glass
摘要
Spectral characteristics and laser performance of a bulk Tb3+-doped selenide glass were studied at room and liquid nitrogen temperatures. Under pumping with a pulsed 2.94 μm Er: YAG laser the output energy up to 36 mJ at 5.25 μm and wavelength tuning within 5.05–5.55 μm spectral range were demonstrated.
