[10p-W834-5] Characteristics of saturable absorption in Cr4+:YAG ceramics

〇Yoichi Sato1, Takunori Taira1,2 (1.Inst. Mol. Sci., 2.RIKEN)

Keywords:Passive Q-switch, ceramics, Cr:YAG

The saturable absorption in the Cr4+:YAG ceramics was investigated for designing efficient Q-switched lasers. We confirmed that Cr4+:YAG ceramics perform the saturable absorption similarly to Cr4+:YAG single crystal for [110]-polarized pump sources.
