Abstract

Summary form only given. Barium tungstate crystal was recently developed as a new promising nonlinear material for crystalline nano- and picosecond Raman lasers. Doping this crystal with Nd/sup 3+/ ions could allow its use as a laser active element and a nonlinear Raman medium simultaneously. In this report, we present results on spectroscopic investigations of BaWO/sub 4/ crystal doped with Nd/sup 3+/ impurity ions.
