Substitution of Lu for Y in the host garnet Y_3Al_5O_12 results in small differences in the laser behavior of Tm^3+. Important shifts in the laser frequency are achieved with little change from the well-known and desirable properties of Y_3Al_5O_12. We discuss the comparative performance of the three materials, both as diode-pumped 3-W TEMoo lasers and as stable single-frequency oscillators. The near-room-temperature center lasing wavelengths of the 0%, 50%, and 100% Lu-substituted crystals are 2013.3, 2022.7, and 2020.3 nm, respectively. |
