High Quality Functional Crystals - Nd:YVO4 Crystal – WISOPTIC Detail:

Nd:YVO₄ (Neodymium-doped Yttrium Vanadate) is one of the best commercially available material for diode-pumped solid-state lasers, especially for lasers with low or middle power density. For example, Nd:YVO₄ is a better choice than Nd:YAG for generating low-power beams in hand-held pointers or other compact lasers. In these applications, Nd:YOV₄has some advantages over Nd:YAG, e.g. high absorption of pumped laser irradiation and large stimulated emission cross section.

Nd:YVO₄ is a good choice for highly polarized output at 1342 nm, as the emission line is much stronger than those of its alternatives. Nd:YVO₄ is capable of working with some nonlinear crystals with high NLO coefficient (LBO, BBO, KTP) to generate lights from near infrared to green, blue, or even UV.

DOWNLOAD Technical Data – Nd-YAG

Advantages of Nd:YVO₄ (compared with Nd:YAG)

• Wider pumping bandwidth around 808 nm (5 times that of Nd:YAG)

• Bigger stimulated emission cross-section at 1064nm (3 times that of Nd:YAG)

• Lower laser damage threshold and higher slope efficiency

• Different from Nd:YAG, Nd:YVO₄ is uniaxial crystal which gives linearly polarized emission, avoiding redundant thermally induced birefringence.
