KYW CRYSTAL - AN OVERVIEW

The gain bandwidth e.g. of Yb:KGW and Yb:KYW is very big in contrast with that of Yb:YAG. This allows for wide wavelength tunability and for A lot shorter pulse durations from method-locked lasers. Values properly below 100 fs happen to be achieved with passive method locking.The Yb-doped potassium yttrium tungstate (Yb:KYW) crystal, as compared t
