In this work, we present the visible laser performance of improved optical quality Czochralski-grown 4 at.% Pr3+-doped Sr0.7La0.3Mg0.3Al11.7O19 (Pr:ASL) single crystals in the deep red (726 nm), the red (645 nm) and the orange (620 nm) range using two different pumping sources. Using a high beam quality frequency doubled Ti:sapphire laser with 1 W output power as pump source, deep red laser emission was reached at a wavelength of 726 nm with 40 mW of output power and a laser threshold of 86 mW. The corresponding slope efficiency was 9%. At 645 nm in the red, up to 41 mW of laser output power were obtained with 15% slope efficiency. Moreover, orange laser emission at 620 nm was demonstrated with 5 mW output power and 4.4% slope efficiency. Using a 10 W multi-diode module as pumping source allowed to obtain the highest output power of a red and deep-red diode-pumped Pr:ASL laser to date. The respective output powers at 726 and 645 nm reached 206 mW and 90 mW.
We report on the laser performances of Pr-doped Sr0.7La0.3Mg0.3Al11.7O17 (Pr:ASL) at 647 nm and 726 nm using a frequency doubled Ti:sapphire and a multi-emitter diode module as pump sources.
