Abstract

In this work the optical and lasing features of 1.2at. percent neodymium doped GGG crystals in comparison to YAG, SLGO and YAP ones are presented. Influence of UV and gamma radiations on a change of absorption and luminescence spectra of the crystal is also reported. The strong influence of UV radiation of pump lamp on lasing characteristics of GGG:Nd crystals is stated. After cut off UV from pump lamp spectrum the slope efficiency of GGG:Nd laser can be placed between SLGO:Nd and SLGO ones.
