The invention provides a
laser crystal of
sodium tungstate with waveband of 2 microns, belonging to a tetragonal
system. The
laser outputting the waveband of 2 microns has the characteristics of shortgrowth period, good integrality, high
crystal yield, low threshold, high
gain and the like. The prepared
laser has high laser output efficiency and belongs to the field of photoelectron materials. The existing laser
crystal of kalium and rare-earth compounded
tungstate, mixed with rare-earth activated
ion, has long growth period; furthermore, the laser crystal of rare-earth salt
vanadate, mixed with the rare-earth activated
ion, has the growing
raw material with high
melting point, thus easily causing segregation due to volatilization; and the grown crystal has bad thermal performance, is easy to crack and has
colored core. The laser crystal is mixed with the rare-earth activated
ion with the waveband of 2 microns, and the substrate is
sodium and rare-earth compounded
tungstate. The lasercrystal is applied to the fields such as
distance measurement by laser,
lidar, photoelectric interference,
remote sensing, environmental detection,
optical communication,
medical treatment and the like.
