Abstract

The room-temperature laser-oscillation properties of lead thiogallate crystals doped with dysprosium ions PbGa(2)S(4):Dy(3+) without additional codoping and codoped with potassium ion for excessive charge compensation were investigated. A slope efficiency of 1% was obtained for the codoped crystal. YAP:Er -1.66 microm laser resonant pumping of PbGa(2)S(4):Dy(3+) laser was compared with YAG:Nd -1.32 microm nonresonant pumping. The maximum energy obtained was 57 microJ with the negligible influence of the atmosphere.
