  • Synthesis, Characterization, and Optical Properties of Pristine and Doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet Nanopowders
    Journal of the American Ceramic Society, 2005
    Co-Authors: Yiguang Wang, Ligong Zhang, Yi Fan, J. Luo, David E. Mccready, Chongmin Wang
    Abstract:

    Pristine, Si-doped, and Si/Nd-codoped yttrium aluminum Garnet (YAG) nanoparticles were synthesized by pyrolysis of complex compounds of aluminum and yttrium with triethanolamine. It was found that the coexistence of Si4+ and Nd3+ increased the solubility of both ions and promoted the formation of YAG phase. Single-phase, nanocrystalline Si/Nd:YAG powders were obtained at calcination temperatures as low as 920°C. The optical behavior of the Si/Nd:YAG nanopowders was similar to that of single-crystal Nd:YAG.

  • Thoracoscopic neodymium: Yttrium-Aluminum Garnet laser-assisted pulmonary resection.
    The Annals of thoracic surgery, 1991
    Co-Authors: Rodney J. Landreneau, David B. Herlan, Joel A. Johnson, Theresa M. Boley, Weerchai Nawarawong, Peter F. Ferson
    Abstract:

    Abstract The recent explosion of interest in surgical endoscopic techniques has revived the application of an old thoracic surgical procedure—thoracoscopy. We report a case of a transthoracoscopic neodymium: Yttrium-Aluminum Garnet laser resection of a limited-stage peripheral adenocarcinoma of the lung accomplished in an elderly man with serious chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

  • Laser performance of highly neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum Garnet crystals.
    Optics letters, 2001
    Co-Authors: Y. Urata, S. Wada, H. Tashiro, P. Deng
    Abstract:

    The laser performance of highly neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum Garnet (YAG) crystals is reported. In cw laser-diode pumping, a slope efficiency of 54% was achieved for a 2-at.  %-doped sample, which was comparable with the slope efficiency of 55% of YVO4. The crystal also exhibited a slope efficiency of 64% under pulsed Ti:sapphire pumping. Such a high efficiency suggests a total cavity loss of ∼1%, which is as low as that of commercially available 1-at.  % YAG crystal. The excellent performance of the neodymium-doped YAG crystals indicates their high optical quality.

  • Characterization of highly neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum Garnet crystals
    Advanced Solid State Lasers, 2000
    Co-Authors: Y. Urata, R. Hua, S. Wada, H. Tashiro, Deng Pingke
    Abstract:

    We have measured the optical properties of 2 and 3 at. % neodymium- doped yttrium aluminum Garnet crystals. Higher absorption coefficients at 809 nm peak were proportional to the doping level. Even in 3 at.% doping, the fluorescence lifetime was still longer than that of 1%-YVO4. With longitudinal pumping, both samples exhibited good properties in lasing.
