Thesis
Ce:LiLuf4 lasers
- Abstract:
-
The research in this project was directed, firstly towards gaining an understanding of the effect excited-state absorption (ESA) has on gain and lasing in broadly tunable Ce:LiLuF lasers and secondly towards the development of Ce:LiLuF lasers suitable for spectroscopic applications.
Detailed measurements of the single-pass, small-signal gain in Ce:LiLuF were undertaken, with a gain coefficient as high as 30±1 cm-1 at 309 nm, with an absorbed pump fluence of 0.46 Jcm...
