“…Both corundum (α-Al 2 O 3 ) and hematite (α-Fe 2 O 3 ) belong to the same space group R3 c with the lattice parameters a = 4.760 Å, c = 12.993 Å [15] and a = 5.039 Å, c = 13.740 Å [16], [17], respectively and can form solid solutions in form of ( [18], [19] to be in the range of 9-11 mol%, which corresponds well to phase diagrams from [20], [21]. The presence and concentration of substitution atoms in solid solution of α-Al 2 O 3 has a strong influence on its optical properties [22], [23] and thus, depending on the laser parameters, even small differences in Fe amount in corundum can tremendously affect the interaction with the laser [13], [14].…”
