Abstract:

The spectral output of a multiply doped Ho3YLF laser in the 2.06 micrometer region was measured using a 5-m grating spectrometer. The average spectral bandwidth of the laser output was found to be 0.5 nm. The laser output varied within a 1.5-nm range about 2.0646 micrometers. Modified author abstract
