Abstract:Transparent laser ceramics have shown great application potentials as the host materials of solid state lasers, because of their excellent physical and stable chemical properties.Solid state lasers have wide applications in the fields of industry, communication, medical and military, such as laser drilling and welding, laser surgery and even laser weapons. Compared with their single crystal counterparts, polycrystalline ceramics possess various advantages, such as shorter fabrication period, higher yield for m… Show more
