Tm:YAP
Product Information :

 


Tm:YAP is the best LD-pumping laser crystal of 2μm range for its 795nm adsorption band easily accessible with high power AlGaAs diode, high quantum efficiency, good physical, chemical and optical properties, linearly polarized output and wider absorption band of 4nm than Tm:YAG. It can be used in all-solid-state laser of 2μm range in medicine and military fields.

Advantages of Tm:YAP Crystal

Good physical, chemical and optical properties

Higher efficiency at 2μm range compared to Tm:YAG

Linearly polarized output beam

Wide absorption band of 4nm compared to Tm:YAG

More accessible to 795nm with AlGaAs diode than the adsorption peak of Tm:YAG at 785nm
