ND:YAG Crystal
Nd:YAG is a widely used solid-state laser gain medium. Its 106nm laser output is used in industry, agriculture, medicine and defense. Its strong overall performance combines high gain, low threshold, high efficiency, low loss, good thermal conductivity and thermal-shock resistance. It supports continuous-wave, pulsed, Q-switched, mode-locked and frequency-doubled operation for industrial, medical, military and research uses. The company supplies high-quality, large Nd:YAG rods for high- and ultrahigh-power lasers.
