Mid-infrared emission properties of the Tm3+-doped sesquioxide crystals Y2O3, Lu2O3, Sc2O3 and mixed compounds (Y,Lu,Sc)2O3 around 1.5-, 2-and 2.3-μm

R. Moncorge et al.

Summary: The study focused on the absorption and emission properties of Tm3+-doped sesquioxides Y2O3, Lu2O3, and Sc2O3 at different wavelengths. It was discovered that only 75% of the Tm3+ ions were involved in the absorption and emission spectra, leading to calculations of cross sections for important excited-state transitions.

Spectroscopic investigation and laser behaviour of Yb-doped laser ceramics based on mixed crystalline structure (ScxY1-x)2O3

Angela Pirri et al.

Summary: The spectroscopic and laser characterization of Yb-doped (ScxY1-x)(2)O-3 ceramics revealed the influence of Sc3+ content on energy level lifetime, absorption, and emission cross sections, as well as the shifting of Yb3+ emission peaks towards longer wavelengths with increased Sc3+ content. Laser tests showed good performance, with a broad tuning range achieved in one compositionally disordered Yb-doped ceramic sample.

Continuously tuned (Tm0.05Sc0.252Y0.698)2O3 ceramic laser with emission peak at 2076 nm

Angela Pirri et al.

Summary: In this study, the first laser action of a (Tm0.05Sc0.252Y0.698)2O3 ceramic sample was reported, achieving an output power of 1.24 W at 2076 nm when pumped at 793 nm. Absorption spectra at various temperatures were measured, with absorption coefficients and emission cross sections calculated accordingly. The ceramic material showed a tuning range of 181 nm.

Sub-50 fs pulse generation from a SESAM mode-locked Tm,Ho-codoped calcium aluminate laser

Li Wang et al.

Summary: We report on the generation of sub-50 fs pulses from a passively mode-locked Tm, Ho-codoped crystalline laser operating in the 2 mu m spectral region. This represents the shortest pulses ever generated from a Tm- and/or Ho-based solid-state laser. The use of a semiconductor saturable absorber mirror as a saturable absorber enables the laser to deliver pulses as short as 46 fs at 2033 nm with an average power of 121 mW at a pulse repetition rate of approximately 78 MHz.

Kerr-lens mode-locked Tm-doped sesquioxide ceramic laser

Yongguang Zhao et al.

Summary: This study explores Kerr-lens mode-locked solid-state laser operation at around 2 μm. By using a Tm3+-doped Lu; Sc/O-2(3) mixed sesquioxide ceramic as the gain medium, pulses as short as 58 fs are generated at around 2081 nm. The average output power reaches 220 mW with a pulse repetition rate of 84.8 MHz, and the emitted spectrum extends to > 2.2 μm, attributed to vibronic transitions of the Tm3+ ions, which are essential for generating pulses in the 50 fs range.
