Yb:YAG is an important diode-pumped laser crystal, which is more suitable for diode pumping than traditional Nd-doped laser materials. Compared with the commonly used Nd:YAG crystal, Yb:YAG crystal has a wider diode pump absorption bandwidth, which can effectively reduce the thermal management requirements of laser diodes. At the same time, the Yb ion laser has a long upper-level fluorescence lifetime, no excited state absorption and energy up-conversion, no radiation heat loss, and the heat load generated per unit pump power is 3 to 4 times lower than that of Nd:YAG crystals. Excellent crystal for average power solid-state lasers.
