TM:ZnSe/S SERIES Cr²+:ZnSe and Cr²+:ZnS LASER ACTIVE MATERIALS Cr2+:ZnSe/S lasers are promising for spectroscopy, sensing, medical and defense related applications, as well as for seeding or pumping middle-infrared optical parametric oscillators. IPG’s fabrication process allows low cost mass production of a large variety of diffusion-doped Cr2+:ZnSe/ZnS crystals with low losses, uniform distribution of chromium, good reproducibility and reliability. The unique combination of available pump sources (Er-fiber, Tm fiber, telecom or InP diodes, Er:YAG/YLF; Tm:YAG/YLF), technological (low cost ceramic material), optical and spectroscopic characteristics (ultrbroadband gain bandwidth, high στ product and high absorption coefficients) make them the gain materials of choice when one needs a compact system with continuous tunability at 300 K over 1.9-3.3 μm, output powers up to 13 W, and high (up to 70%) conversion efficiency.
