Abstract
In this work, we fabricated the all-ceramic composite with layer-by-layer of Nd:Y3ScAl4O12 (YSAG) and Nd:Y3Al5O12 (YAG). We found that the tuning of the pumping wavelength made the spectral profile of fluorescence from the composite ceramics more even than that from single-layered Nd:Y3ScxAl5-xO12 ceramics. The technique of composite ceramics is proved to be useful because it can provide not only the compositional tuning but also a new controllability by the selection of the pump source.
