Laser Crystals

A laser crystal, also known as an active medium or gain medium, is a solid-state material used in the construction of lasers. The primary function of the laser crystal is to amplify light by stimulated emission of photons, leading to the generation of a coherent and focused laser beam. The choice of crystal material depends on factors such as the desired output wavelength, power output, efficiency, and other optical properties required for the specific application.

Glossary

laser A laser, which stands for "light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation," is a device that produces coherent and focused beams of light through the process of optical amplification based on the principles of quantum mechanics. Key...
crystal A solid with a structure that exhibits a basically symmetrical and geometrical arrangement. A crystal may already possess this structure, or it may acquire it through mechanical means. More than 50 chemical substances are important to the optical...

YAG laser A solid-state laser using yttrium aluminum garnet as the matrix material, doped with neodymium (Nd:YAG).
solid-state laser A solid-state laser is a type of laser that uses a solid gain medium (as opposed to a liquid or gas) to produce coherent light. The term "solid-state" refers to the fact that the active medium, where the lasing action occurs, is a solid material....
