Abstract
Efficient laser operation at room temperature on the transitions 4(/) 1½—4(/) 1.3/2 of erbium ions and 5(/)7—5(/)8 of holmium ions (λ = 2.088) is reported. Oscillation efficiency is more than 1 %: oscillation threshold is <40 J. The high efficiency is obtained due to the sensitization of luminescence of rare-earth ions by chromium Ions.
