An Yb 3+ :YVO 4 laser under Ti:Al 2 O 3 laser pumping and diode laser pumping with a maximum output power of 433 mW at an emission wavelength of 1037 nm is presented. Furthermore Stark-splitting of both multiplets was determined for the first time by analysing absorption and fluorescence at low temperatures. The absorption and emission cross-sections as well as the fluorescence lifetime were determined. The absorption shows a maximum in π -polarization of 6.74×10 -20 cm 2 with a width of 8 nm. At the laser wavelength the emission cross-section is around 2×10 -21 cm 2 to 4×10 -21 cm 2 .
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
