Abstract

This paper reports the pulse laser characteristics of the new polymorph γ-Nd3+: LaSc3(BO3)4 (γ-NLSB) crystal. The maximum laser output of a γ-NLSB rod with dimensions of Φ3.3 mmx15 mm was 83.0 mJ at 1.06 μm, pumped by a single Xenon flash-lamp of 03.0 mmx 20 mm. The overall and average slope efficiencies were 0.78% and 1.02%, respectively. The laser energy threshold value Eth was lower than 0.2 J, and the extinction ratio of the crystal was 39.38 dB, the output laser of 1.06 μm was the linear polarized light.
