Abstract

Optical properties of Ho3+-doped Lu3Al5O12 and (Lu,Y)3Al5O12 crystals were investigated and compared. Substitution of Y for Lu in the host garnet Lu3Al5O12 results in broad absorption and emission spectra, and improvements in the laser behavior of Ho3+. Pumped by Tm:fiber laser, a maximum output power of 5.02 and 5.73 W of Ho-doped Lu3Al5O12 and (Lu,Y)3Al5O12 have been obtained, respectively. The center lasing wavelength are 2124.5 and 2123.0 nm for Lu3Al5O12 and (Lu,Y)3Al5O12, respectively.
