CONSIDERATIONS TO KNOW ABOUT KYW CRYSTAL

The achieve bandwidth e.g. of Yb:KGW and Yb:KYW may be very large in contrast with that of Yb:YAG. This allows for broad wavelength tunability and for much shorter pulse durations from manner-locked lasers. Values perfectly down below one hundred fs are already attained with passive mode locking.The Yb-doped potassium yttrium tungstate (Yb:KYW) cr
