Check List for Laser Crystals

Are you sure that you are using the best suited laser crystal material for your application? If not, you may want to consult an expert.
Also, before ordering crystals, one should be sure that one is using a proper laser design.
Check the required dimensions.
Check the doping concentration. Particularly for quasi-three level gain media, this is quite important. Caution: manufacturers can not always guarantee a high accuracy of the doping concentration.
Will the crystal quality be sufficiently high? Possible aspects of relevance: homogeneous refractive index, no clustering of the dopant, impurities, parasitic absorption. (Some materials such as Cr⁴⁺:YAG are more critical than e.g. Nd:³⁺:YAG.)
Is the surface quality high enough? For example scratch/dig 10–5 and λ/20 for demanding applications?
For non-isotropic materials (e.g., Nd³⁺:YVO₄): what is the proper crystal orientation? How can it be recognized if it is not obvious from the geometry?
Do you need anti-reflection coatings on the end faces?
For side-pumped lasers: are the sides properly processed (e.g. polished)?

In case that you need additional advice, consultancy from RP Photonics may be the solution.

32 suppliers for laser crystals are listed in the RP Photonics Buyer's Guide. Both manufacturers and distributors can be registered.
