Low phonon energy Nd:LaF<sub>3</sub> channel waveguide lasers fabricated by molecular beam epitaxy
We report the first fabrication and laser operation of channel waveguides based on LaF<sub>3</sub> planar thin films grown by molecular beam epitaxy. To our knowledge, this is the lowest phonon energy dielectric material to have shown guided-wave laser operation to date. A full character...
