Results on the growth technique, spectral and luminescence characteristics of Nd3+ ions in SrWO4 Raman crystals are presented. Optimal conditions to obtain optically homogeneous single crystals free of light scattering centers and growth striations were found. The values of effective segregation coefficients of active Nd and compensating Nb ions were determined. Strontium tungstate crystal exhibits one of the highest Raman gain values (5.0 cm/GW) among Nd-doped Raman host materials. Efficient intracavity Raman self-conversion in Nd3+:SrWO4 laser was demonstrated. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
