Abstract

The crystal of Nd3+:Sr6YSc(BO3)6 with dimensions of O 19×42 mm3 was grown by the Czochralski method. It’s spectral and laser properties have been investigated. The absorption cross section is 1.47×10-20 cm2 with a FWHM 12.0 nm at 807 nm, the emission cross section is 1.57×10-19 cm2 at 1060 nm, and the fluorescence lifetime is 76 μs at room temperature. The maximum laser output is 25.7 mJ at 1.06 μm pumped by a single Xenon flash lamp and the overall and average slope efficiencies are 0.12% and 0.09%, respectively. The laser energy threshold value is 1.28 J.
