  • Abstract
    Laser action has been observed for the following rare-earth ions in YAlO3:Ho3+(sensitized with Er3+and Tm3+), Er3+, and Tm3+(sensitized with Er3+) at wavelengths of 2.123, 0.851, and 1.861 μm, respectively. Measurements of spectroscopic properties, fluorescence kinetics, and laser performance of these ions in YAlO3are reported.
