CONSIDERATIONS TO KNOW ABOUT KYW CRYSTAL

The get bandwidth e.g. of Yb:KGW and Yb:KYW is extremely substantial compared with that of Yb:YAG. This allows for vast wavelength tunability and for Substantially shorter pulse durations from manner-locked lasers. Values well underneath a hundred fs are obtained with passive manner locking.The Yb-doped potassium yttrium tungstate (Yb:KYW) crystal
