Abstract
Ho:Tm:LuAG has been grown, examined spectroscopically, and lased at 2. 1 mum. Ho:Tm:LuAG was selected for this experimental investigation whe n quantum-mechanical modeling predicted that it would be a good laser material for Ho laser operation on one of the I-5(7) to I-5(8) transit ions. Lasing was achieved at 2.100 mum, one of the three wavelengths p redicted to be most probable for laser action.
