Features: This book focuses on LD-pumped Yb3+-doped laser crystals, a research hotspot in laser materials over the past decade, integrating the research achievements of the author's team and comprehensive, in-depth, and systematic summaries of domestic and international research on this type of laser crystal. Categorized by the structure and compositional characteristics of the host crystal, it summarizes the growth methods, defects, lattice structures, energy level splitting, spectral, and laser properties of different series of Yb3+-doped laser crystals. It emphasizes the discussion of the interactions between the crystal structure, micro-lattice points, spectral properties, and laser performance of Yb3+-doped laser crystals, as well as the underlying physical mechanisms. The book showcases China's research level in this field. As a scientific monograph focused on fundamental research, it serves as a valuable reference for researchers engaged in laser materials, solid-state physics, and basic laser technology research; it is also suitable for students and faculty in relevant disciplines at universities and colleges for study and reference.
