Abstract: An experimental investigation was made of the influence of interaction processes involving excited Er³⁺ ions on the stimulated emission characteristics of a 3-μm yttrium scandium gallium garnet (YSGG:Сг³⁺, Ег³⁺) crystal laser pumped by a krypton laser. The results are explained using a spectroscopic model of this crystal.
