HELPING THE OTHERS REALIZE THE ADVANTAGES OF KYW CRYSTAL

The attain bandwidth e.g. of Yb:KGW and Yb:KYW is quite big in contrast with that of Yb:YAG. This allows for extensive wavelength tunability and for much shorter pulse durations from mode-locked lasers. Values properly down below 100 fs are accomplished with passive method locking.The Yb-doped potassium yttrium tungstate (Yb:KYW) crystal, when com
