Cr,Nd:YSGG (Chromiun and Neodymium doped Yttrium Scandium Gallium Garnet, Cr,Nd:Y3Sc2Ga3012)
Cr,Nd:YSGG (Chromium and Neodymium doped Yttrium Scandium Gallium Garnet) is a type of laser crystal that is made by doping Yttrium Scandium Gallium Garnet (YSGG) with Chromium (Cr) and Neodymium (Nd) ions. The crystal structure of YSGG is a garnet-type structure, with a crystal lattice that has a high degree of symmetry. When doped with Cr and Nd ions, the crystal gains new optical properties that allow it to be used as a laser medium. The Cr,Nd:YSGG crystal is known for its high laser efficiency and its ability to emit light in a wide range of wavelengths, making it useful for a variety of applications in fields such as medicine, material processing, and scientific research.
