Vintage (mid 70), new, never used, in original box, opened, type GLS-1 laser glass rod, made in Russian Federation. The neodymium oxide Nd. Doping is about 2 % by mass or 1.9 x 10. Ion concentration for this laser glass From: B. Handbook of Solid-State Lasers: Materials, Systems, and Applications, Woodhead Publ. 121, Table 5.2. In perfect optical condition, no scratches or chips, pictured each end. Originally intended to be used as amplifier in a large R&D laser for plasma studies, but never used. As oscillator, expect to obtain 500 – 800 J in free running, 150 – 350 J in Q-switch, 50 – 100 J in mode-locking (ps pulses), appropriately pumped (4 x 20 kJ flash lamps, circular cylinder pumping chamber). Similar rods were used for scientific plasma mirror experiments. Good for scientific, industrial, educational laser experiments, or for laser history collectibles.
