Abstract

Nd:BaY2F8 has been successfully grown and operated under flashlamp pumping conditions at both 1.0488 and 1.3176 μm. Nd:BaY2F8 is an interesting laser material because of its long upper laser level lifetime, 456 μsec, and its birefringent nature. Because of the short length of the available laser rod, an uncommon pulse forming network was employed. Under this experimental configuration, Nd:BaY2F8 displayed a higher slope efficiency than a Nd:YAG laser rod with the same diameter.
