SAES Getters Nd:YAG Solid State Laser Crystals (Nd-doped Y₃Al₅O₁₂) (discontinued **)
Categories:	Ceramic; Oxide; Aluminum Oxide
Material Notes:	Y_3-xNd_xAl₅O₁₂ where Nd doping level between 0.2 and 1.4% atomic. Among solid-state laser crystals, Nd:YAG is the most versatile and suitable for a wide range of applications due to its physical properties, low threshold, high gain and narrow linewidth. Typical applications include the military, medicine and material processing industries for cutting, welding, drilling, marking and repairing. Nd:YAG lasers are also employed in application areas characterized by harsh environmental conditions, like remote sensing, ocean and atmospheric experiments. Ultrapure gas and superior raw material purity, together with a tightly controlled proprietary process, allow us to proudly offer premium grade Nd:YAG crystal rods with low losses and superior efficiency. Nd concentration uniformity along each rod is achieved by using only a small portion (about 20%) of the melt. A very uniform Nd profile is certified for each boule, that is also marked with laser for identification. Information provided by SAES Getters.
