The undoped and the Nd3+:KBaGd(WO4)3 crystals were grown by the top seeded solution growth (TSSG) method from a flux of K2W2O7. The structure of the pure crystal was determined by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction method. It crystallizes in the monoclinic symmetry with space group C2/c. In the structure, K+ and Ba2+ ions share the same 8f site with occupancy of 0.464 and 0.536, respectively. The investigation of spectral properties of Nd3+:KBaGd(WO4)3 crystal indicates that it exhibits broad absorption and emission bands, which are attributed to locally disordered environments around the Nd3+ centers. The broad absorption band is suitable for diode laser pumping.
