Abstract
This work is focused on the growth and the analysis of the potentials of Tm3+ doped YVO4 and Y2O3 single crystals for diode-pumped laser emi ssion around the 1.5 mu m eye safe laser wavelength. Both systems show broad-band absorptions around 800 nm and large stimulated emission cr oss sections around 1.5 mu m. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.
