Abstract
Efficient room-temperature laser operation was obtained in the wavelength range from 2117 nm to 2134 nm with Ho:Lu(2)O(3) and Ho:Y(2)O(3) as the active materials. With an FBG-stabilized Tm-doped fiber laser as the pump source, the maximum slope efficiency and output power of the Ho:Y(2)O(3) laser were 63% and 18.8 W, respectively. With Ho:Lu(2)O(3) the respective values were 76% and 25.2 W. With Ho:Sc(2)O(3) as the active material the accessible wavelength range could be expanded to 2158 nm in a diode-pumped setup.
