  • Abstract
    For efficient operation of the Tm3+ 2.3 μm 3 H4-3H5 laser transition, a suitable host with low multiphonon decay rates, such as Gd3Sc 2Ga3012 (GSGG), is desirable. Continuously tunable, CW, room temperature laser operation of this transition is demonstrated for Tm:GSGG. Broadband tuning is obtained from 2.20-2.37 μm
