Er:YAP has a large emission cross section at 3μm, three times that of Er:YAG. Highly doped Er:YAP can emit at 2.73µm, while lightly doped Er:YAP can emit at 1.66µm. Its emission and excitation spectra show a broad emission band in the eye-safe region, with peaks near 1545nm and 1608nm and pump bands compatible with common 800nm and 970nm diode lasers. This makes YAP a candidate crystal for diode-pumped lasers in the eye-safe 1.5μm range. Compared with YAG, yttrium aluminum perovskite (YAP) is a promising host for efficient laser emission because of its higher thermal conductivity (~13.3 W m⁻¹ K⁻¹), good mechanical properties, and lower photon energy. Er:YAP is also one of the most promising laser materials for high-power coherent mid-infrared beams.
