Abstract

Pulsed lasing ofthe Fe²⁺:ZnSe single crystal was demonstrated at room temperature. The laser action centered at 4.4 μm with pulse energies up to 1.4 mJ and an input energy slope efficiency of 11% was obtained vith a 2.94 μm Q-switched Er:YAG pump laser. Continuous tuning from 3.9 to 5.1 μm was demonstrated.
