Zusammenfassung

Wie eingangs schon erwälint wurde, läßt sich mit einigen wenigen Dioden-lasertypen durch die Kombination mit verschiedenen Festkörperlaser-Materialien eine Vielzahl von Laserwellenlängen erzeugen, wobei sich dann auch gänzlich andere Lasereigenschaften ergeben können, wie z. B. hohe Strahlqualität, hohe Leistungen, kurze Pulse, oder auch über breite Wellenlängenintervalle abstimmbare diodengepumpte Festkörperlaser möglich werden. Dies alles wird durch die Wahl des aktiven Mediums entscheidend bestimmt. Dabei können mehrere Kriterien für ein gutes Lasermaterial aufgezählt werden: wünschenswert sind insbesondere a) ein großer Emissions- und Absorptionswirkungsquerschnitt, b) eine lange Fluoreszenzlebensdauer, c) eine gute optische Qualität, d) eine hohe Wärmeleitfähigkeit, e) eine große mechanische Härte, f) ein geringer thermischer Ausdehnungskoeffizient, g) eine geringe thermische Abhängigkeit des Brechungsindex, h) ein leichtes Kristallzüchten von möglichst großer Kristallen, i) eine gute Bearbeitbarkeit und nicht zuletzt, für das Diodenpumpen besonders wichtig, j) eine breite Absorptionslinie, die möglichst nahe bei der Emissionswellenlänge liegen sollte.
