Hot-pressed ceramic Cr(2+):ZnSe gain-switched laser.
The technology of hot-pressed Cr(2+):ZnSe ceramic preparation is reported. Comparative gain-switched lasing of hot-pressed ceramic and CVD grown Cr(2+):ZnSe samples with slope efficiencies up to 10% and output energies up to 2 mJ were demonstrated. This is a milestone in the development of future large scale mid-IR laser systems based on ceramic TM(2+):II-VI materials. This evolving technology ...
متن کاملGain-switched holmium-doped fibre laser.
We demonstrate the first gain-switched, singly doped, single-mode holmium-doped silicate glass fibre laser that operates at 2.106 microm. Using a gain-switched 1.909-microm thulium-doped fibre laser as the pump source, output pulses of energy 3.2 microJ and pulse duration of 150 ns were generated at 80 kHz and slope efficiency of 44%. Pulse stacking within the holmium-doped fibre laser resulted...
متن کاملInvestigation of the Physical and Mechanical Properties of Hot-Pressed Boron Nitride/Oxide Ceramic Composites
Billets of hexagonal boron nitride powders (h-BN) were hot-pressed, varying the alignment of the platelike particles and the amount of oxide additives. Increasing either alignment of individual grains or the amount of additives was shown to increase flexural strength, to approximately 120 MPa at ambient temperatures. h-BN was shown to deflect cracks initially propagating normal to its basal pla...
متن کاملEffect of porosity on electrical conductivity of hot pressed AlN ceramic
2014 Temperature dependence of electrical conductivity has been studied for hot pressed AlN ceramic having different volume percentage of porosity (0.2 to 15 %) in the temperature range (500 K to 950 K). It has been observed that electrical conductivity decreases by two orders of magnitude as the volume percentage of porosity increases from 0.2 to 15 %. The effect of moisture on electrical cond...
متن کاملEvaluation of areas susceptible to failure in hot-pressed ceramic crowns
Fracture of ceramic materials has been one of the most frequently reported complications for all-ceramic restorations. The aim of the study was to analyze the fracture features of hot-pressed ceramic crowns in order to evaluate areas susceptible to crack initiation and crack propagation correlated with stress areas. The crowns were inspected visually to determine the shape and orientation of th...
