Nd:YVO4 Crystal

Nd:YVO4 crystal is one of the most efficient laser host crystal currently existing for diode laser pumped solid state lasers. Its large stimulated emission cross-section at lasing wavelength, high absorption coefficient and wide absorption bandwidth at pump wavelength, high laser induced damage threshold as well as good physical, optical and mechanical properties make Nd:YVO4 an excellent crystal for high power, stable and cost effective diode pumped solid-state lasers.
 

FEATURES:

Low lasing threshold and high slope efficiency 
Low dependency on pump wavelength 
Large stimulated emission cross-section at lasing wavelength 
High absorption over a wide pumping wavelength bandwidth 
Optically uniaxial and large birefringence emits polarized laser
