Passive laser Q-switches on the basis of crystals of LiF with F-and LiF with F-1ike centers, and LiF:O, OH with new Ft-like centers were investigated. The paper presents power characteristics and radiation parameters of alexandrite lasers with different Q-switches. Operating potentials of Q-switches are determined.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
