Co+2:MgAl2O4 (Co:MALO, Co:spinel) crystal passive Q-switch

Co+2:MgAl2O4 (spinel) crystal is a material having high optical damage threshold and low optical losses in 1.3 - 1.6 µm spectral range. Co2+-activated MgAl2O4 (Co:MALO, Co:spinel) can be used as a media for passive Q-switch of lasers which operate in the spectral range of 1.3 - 1.6 µm, for example 1.32 µm and 1.44 µm Nd:YAG lasers, 1.31 µm iodine lasers and especially 1.54 µm erbium glass lasers. High enough absorption cross-section of Co+2 ions together with practical absence of excited state absorption makes Co+2:MgAl2O4 (Co:MALO, Co:spinel) crystal a very efficient passive Q-switcher (that does not require intracavity focusing) for various types of erbium glass lasers, including diode-pumped microchips.

Co+2:MgAl2O4 (Co:MALO, Co:spinel) crystal passive Q-switch is applicable in areas of research, development, education & production: photonics, optic, laser technology, telecommunications, electronic.
