Abstract

Demonstrations of CW lasing in ceramic Cr²⁺:ZnSe are reported. The laser consists of a 1.7-mm thick ceramic Cr²⁺:ZnSe disk pumped by a double-clad Tm-silica fiber laser at 2050 nm. Using a concave HR mirror with a radius of curvature of 500 mm as the rear mirror, the laser delivers up to 1030mW of radiation around 2.367 μm.
