Abstract

Single crystals of Yb doped Li 6Y(BO 3) 3 were obtained by Czochralski method. The first laser tests were encouraging. Different parameters have been investigated to improve cw-laser performances. Thermal properties but also ytterbium content, crystal thickness and pump polarisation are reported. The best crystal configuration was determined and led to high power cw-laser tests equal to 2 W output power.
