Abstract
Continuous-wave (cw) upconversion laser emission of Pr, Yb:LiYF4 (Pr, Yb:YLF) at room temperature is reported for the first time. Pumping with a Ti:sapphire laser, output powers of 75 mW and 19 mW were achieved on the transitions 3P0→3F2 (λL=639.5 nm) and 3P0→ 3F4 (λL=720 nm), respectively.
