Advanced crystalline laser materials
Abstract
The scaling laws for zig-zag and flow cooled disk amplifiers were analyzed, materials' figures of merit were defined, and laser performance applications maps were developed. Efforts are being made to synthesize, characterize, select, and develop new materials useful for a variety of robust laser applications.
