Abstract
Abstract Spectroscopic and laser output characteristics of novel Fe2+-doped Zn1-xMnxTe (x ≈ 0.3) active material are presented and compared to other known Fe2+-based materials. At ~3 μm pumping, the central laser oscillation wavelength was ~4.8 μm at 78 K and shifted to 5.15 μm at 160 K. At 4.1 μm pumping, the central oscillation wavelength was ~4.9 μm at 78 K and shifted farther to 5.25 μm at 160 K. 10-μJ-level output pulse energy was achieved. These results present a great potential of the Fe2+:Zn1-xMnxTe (x ≈ 0.3) crystal for mid-IR laser radiation generation.
