Popis: This paper analyzes the requirements imposed on laser glasses intended for the fabrication of rod-shaped and large disk-shaped active elements with a large aperture for generators and heavy-duty radiation amplifiers. Quantitative data are presented concerning the maximum achievable values of the functionally important basic characteristics of domestically produced neodymium phosphate glasses and the copper-oxide-doped glasses from which absorbing shells (cladding) are fabricated that suppress superluminescence and stray lasing in disk-shaped active elements.
