Buying Erbium-ytterbium-doped Laser Gain Media
Laser gain media doped with both erbium and ytterbium combine the advantages of both dopants. Ytterbium absorbs pump radiation and transfers energy to erbium. These media include Er/Yb-doped optical fibers, bulk glasses, and crystalline materials, providing efficient energy transfer for laser applications.
