Notes:
The possibility of simultaneous multiple wavelength lasing in various neodymium host crystals such as Nd:YAG, Nd:YLF, Nd:BEL, and Nd:YAP has been analyzed by the "oscillation condition.'' It is shown that this kind of laser can be realized in all the described crystals in pulsed state, but only achieved in the Nd:YAP crystal in continuous-wave state. On the basis of the analyzed results, we have achieved cw simultaneous multiple wavelength lasing in Nd:YAP crystal for the first time at both 1.0795 and 1.3414 μm.
