Er:YAG+YAG

Detailed Product Description

Er:YAG+YAG
Erbium-doped YAG (Er:YAG) is an active laser medium lasing at 2940 nm. Its absorption bands

suitable for pumping are wide and located between 600-800 nm, allowing for efficient flashlamp

pumping. The dopant concentration used is high, about 50% of yttrium atoms is replaced. The Er:YAG

laser crystals couple well into water and body fluids, making them especially useful for medicine

and dentistry uses; it is used for treatment of tooth enamel and in cosmetic surgery. Er:YAG is

used for noninvasive monitoring of blood sugar. The mechanical properties of Er:YAG are

essentially the same as Nd:YAG. Er:YAG operates at relatively eye-safe wavelengths (while it hits

the lens, it is absorbed in the eye so it does not damage retina), works well at room temperature,

and has high slope efficiency.
 Er:YAG+YAG is Er:YAG synthesis with YAG.
