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.
