  • Abstract
    In NaF doped with divalent alkaline earth impurities, thermally stabilized F+2* centers were found. Compared to the corresponding centers in transition-metal-doped crystals, they show improved properties (slope efficiency, output power, reduced fading) as active media in CW color center lasers.
