Aa. Kaminskii et al., 3-MICRON CW STIMULATED-EMISSION FROM A NEW ER3-DIODE PUMPING(BALU2F8 LASER CRYSTAL SUBJECTED TO LASER), Quantum electronics, 28(2), 1998, pp. 93-94
A new laser based on an orthorhombic Er3+:BaLu2F8 crystal was develope
d. This laser generated cw lambda = 3 mu m radiation at 300 K when pum
ped with an InGaAs laser diode.
