Abstract
We have studied cw room‐temperature lasing behavior of LiNdP4O12. A threshold of 360‐μW optical excitation power at 0.582‐μm wavelength was measured, with 18% power conversion efficiency to 1.048‐μm radiation at 1‐mW output. The crystal structure is found to be monoclinic (C2/c) rather than orthorhombic as previously reported.Keywords
