Title
Growth Of Low-Scattering-Loss Cr3+:Lisralf6 Single Crystals
Abstract
The growth of high quality, low scattering loss Cr doped LiSAF single crystals by Czochralski pulling technique is described. Scattering loss as low as 0.1%/cm has achieved. The loss depends on the Cr doping concentration. We found that maintaining flat interface growth is crucial to reduce scattering loss and minimize wavefront distortion. These low loss materials provide true prospect of all solid state diode pumped tunable laser as well as ultrashort pulse generation and amplification.
