KYW CRYSTAL - AN OVERVIEW

The attain bandwidth e.g. of Yb:KGW and Yb:KYW is extremely significant as opposed with that of Yb:YAG. This permits for vast wavelength tunability and for much shorter pulse durations from mode-locked lasers. Values well below 100 fs have been reached with passive mode locking.This exclusive attribute of ultrafast pulses allows nonlinear optical
