  • Abstract
    In this paper, we have developed a new route to fabricate channel waveguides, by using ion implantation technique in buried epitaxial crystalline YAG:Nd,Tm layers. Excited state absorption and energy transfer upconversion mechanisms are discussed in view of a single beam pumped infrared to blue upconversion laser for integrated optics.
