Problems solved by technology

Yb:YAG, Nd:YAG and Yb:LuAG, Nd:LuAG crystals are excellent high-power laser gain media, but the relatively narrow emission wavelength range of the crystals makes the crystals unable to meet the needs of high-efficiency, high-power and ultra-short pulse lasers at the same time output
