AN EXAMINATION OF THE ABSORPTION, FLUORESCENCE, AND LASER RADIATION SPECTRA FOR SOME COMMERICIAL LASER CRYSTALS,

Abstract

In most part, the positions of the energy levels and the gross ranges of laser operating frequencies agree with the published data. But the fluorescense linewidth, the threshold, and the fine characteristics of the lasers deviate considerably from the published data. In the following sections, the absorption spectra, the fluorescence spectra, and the laser characteristics of these three commercial laser crystals are discussed in comparison with the published data.
