Top-level product category: materials

More general product categories: rare-earth-doped laser gain media

Ytterbium-doped laser gain media include a variety of materials such as bulk crystals, glasses, and fibers. These media are known for their efficiency and are used in a wide range of laser applications.

Making Good Purchase Decisions

RP Photonics helps you to not only to find all relevant suppliers, but also to make good purchasing decisions.

NEW: Structured Decision Process

We recommend that you apply best practice by using the following structured process: Go through the following expandable sections, complete the form and finally come to a purchase decision. You can then print that to a PDF for documenting the process.

(Various further improvements of this feature will come soon.)

1. Learn about the technology

It is important to sufficiently understand the technology before buying.

With its comprehensive resources, RP Photonics helps you to well prepare purchase decisions:

2. Define your requirements

It is important to fully understand and define your requirements before you buy.

We recommend that for your preparation and for inquiries to suppliers, you draw up a list of clear specifications according to your specific needs:

To help you, we have already listed some aspects we recommend you consider when buying ytterbium-doped laser gain media. Of course, there may be other aspects that are relevant to your specific case.

Otherwise, you will need to talk to your technical colleagues.

If you check this, the criteria will be inserted into the inquiry mail if below you use a button titled "Get quotation".

If you cannot sufficiently clarify your requirements, you may want to get technical consultancy from RP Photonics.

3. Find suppliers

We suggest three steps:

  • Below, you can find our list of suppliers for ytterbium-doped laser gain media. Use the checkboxes to mark possibly suitable suppliers.
  • The selected suppliers will appear below this list, along with your list of specifications. You can then indicate which specifications they meet according to your research.
  • Based on the results, you can finally choose a supplier that is hopefully a good enough fit.

ytterbium-doped laser gain media

Optogama offers Yb:KGW, Yb:KYW, Yb:CaF2 and other Yb-doped crystals which possess a broad gain bandwidth that enable the generation of femtosecond pulses in diode-laser pumped mode-locked lasers.

Compared with other ytterbium-doped gain media, ytterbium-doped tungstates has fairly high absorption and emission cross-sections.

Yb:CaF2 features very broad and smooth emission bands, good thermal properties and can be grown of large dimension with high optical quality.

ytterbium-doped laser gain media

Yb3+:YAG, Yb3+:CaF2 and other Yb3+-doped laser crystals are lately gaining more attention due to some unique lasing properties like very wide emission spectral range from 1020 nm to 1100 nm and the absence of excited-state absorption. Both the wide tuning range and generation of femtosecond laser pulses makes these laser gain media as the first choice for many applications.

Standard pre-configured Yb3+:YAG laser crystals with various doping levels from 0.5% to 10% and AR- or HR-coatings are available from stock. Customized designs are also available.
