Description
Nd: YVO4 crystal is an excellent laser crystal for making diode pumped solid lasers. The main and greatest advantages of Nd: YVO4 are high absorption coefficient, big stimulated emission cross-section and wide absorption band, the absorption peak is about 808 nm.
Because of these advantages, small crystal can be used to make smaller laser device. Another feature of Nd: YVO4 crystal is the uniaxial, which makes it emit linearly polarized lights. Combining with frequency-doubled crystal, all-solid-state lasers with near-infrared, green, blue and ultraviolet wavelength can be realized.
