Periodic Reporting for period 1 - TDL2Ho (Thin-disk lasers for the 2-micron spectral range based on Ho-doped monoclinic double-tungstate epitaxial structures)

Eye safe lasers emitting in the 2-µm spectral range have potential applications in medicine, material processing and defence and security among others. Short pulse (ns) lasers are employed as pump sources for optical parametric oscillators (OPOs), for extension to the...
