KYW CRYSTAL - AN OVERVIEW

The achieve bandwidth e.g. of Yb:KGW and Yb:KYW is very massive as opposed with that of Yb:YAG. This allows for vast wavelength tunability and for much shorter pulse durations from mode-locked lasers. Values properly beneath one hundred fs are actually accomplished with passive method locking.The Yb-doped potassium yttrium tungstate (Yb:KYW) cryst
