China

Our Ti:sapphire crystal, or titanium-doped sapphire, has the chemical formula Ti³⁺:Al₂O₃ and is a transition-metal-doped laser crystal with good overall performance. As an optically pumped solid-state laser crystal, it is widely used in tunable lasers, offering a tuning range of 650-1100nm with a peak at 800nm, among the broadest ranges for tunable laser crystals. Ti³⁺ ions provide very large gain bandwidth, enabling broad wavelength tunability in short-pulse lasers. The Ti:Sapphire absorption band centered at 490 nm suits pump sources including argon-ion lasers, frequency-doubled Nd:YAG and YLF lasers, and copper-vapor lasers. Its fluorescence lifetime of 3.2 μs allows efficient pumping by short-pulse flashlamps in powerful laser systems. Self-mode-locked titanium-sapphire lasers can directly emit pulses shorter than 6.5fs, described as the shortest pulses emitted directly from a resonator. Frequency-doubling techniques extend the beam wavelength from blue into the deep ultraviolet; the resulting 193nm lasers have been used in lithography machines.
