摘要
The Ho：YAP crystal is grown by the Czochralski technique. The room-temperature polarized absorption spectra of Ho：YAP crystal was measured on a c-cut sample with 1 at% holmium. According to the obtained Judd-Ofelt intensity parameters Ω2 = 1.42 × 10^-20cm^2, Ω4 = 2.92 ×10^-20 cm^2, and Ω6 =1.71 ×10^-20cm^2, this paper calculated the fluorescence lifetime to be 6 ms for ^5I7→^5Is transition, and the integrated emission cross section to be 2.24 × 10^-18 cm^2. It investigates the room-temperature Ho：YAP laser end-pumped by a 1.91-μm Tm：YLF laser. The maximum output power was 4.1 W when the incident 1.91-μm pump power was 14.4W. The slope efficiency is 40.8%, corresponding to an optical-to-optical conversion efficiency of 28.4%. The Ho：YAP output wavelength was centred at 2118 nm with full width at half maximum of about 0.8nm.
