Opt Express. 2013 Sep 23;21(19):22263-8. doi: 10.1364/OE.21.022263.

Abstract

We demonstrate a tri-wavelength laser generation from a Nd-doped calcium niobium gallium garnet disordered crystal waveguide. The laser threshold obtained was 83 mW of launched pumping laser corresponding to a slope efficiency of 5.1%. According to the laser spectrum, the output light was found to be a tri-wavelength laser, with wavelengths of 1058 nm, 1060 nm and 1064 nm, respectively. The stability of the output laser was investigated, which found that the output laser was a continuous laser.
