Nd:Ce:YAG is an excellent laser material used for no-water cooling and miniature laser systems.The Nd:Ce:YAG laser rod we produce has the characteristics of high efficiency,low threshold ,anti-violet radiation for lasers operation. As a result -thermal distortion  in Nd:Ce:YAG is appreciably less and the output laser energy is greater (30%-50%) than that in Nd:YAG at the same pumping. It is the most ideal laser material for the air cooling lasers. It is suitablefor different modes of operation (pulsed ,Q-switched, mode-locked )and high-average  power lasers.

Advantages of Nd:Ce:YAG Include:

● Low threshold

● Very high slope efficiency(20-40% more than Nd:YAG)

● Good anti-UV irradiation property

● Good thermal stability

● High optical quality
