THE SMART TRICK OF KYW CRYSTAL THAT NOBODY IS DISCUSSING

The gain bandwidth e.g. of Yb:KGW and Yb:KYW is quite huge in comparison with that of Yb:YAG. This permits for large wavelength tunability and for Significantly shorter pulse durations from manner-locked lasers. Values nicely under one hundred fs are realized with passive method locking.The comparison with glasses is acceptable For the reason that
