  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. A quantitative study on the choice of doping level and laser host rod length over a wide temperature range, based on a laser model anchored to experimental laser results is described. The article focuses on hosts such as YAG and Y2O3, and resonant pumping of the 4I13/2 level with laser diode bars and stacks. The implications for Er:YAG at cryogenic temperatures, and for Er:Y2O3 at low temperature and room temperature are analyzed.
