The holmium-doped yttrium orthovanadate (Ho:YVO(4)) crystal was shown to be an effective solid-state saturable-absorber Q switch for a flash-lamp-pumped Tm,Cr:Y(3)Al(5)O(12) laser operating at 2.017 µm. A single Q-switched laser pulse of 3.5 mJ in energy and 45 ns in duration was observed with a 1-mm-thick 4% Ho:YVO(4) solid-state saturable absorber, which was grown with the high-temperature-solution-growth method.
掺钬正钒酸钇（Ho:YVO₄）晶体被证明是一种有效的固态可饱和吸收体Q开关，用于闪光灯泵浦的Tm,Cr:Y₃Al₅O₁₂激光器，其工作波长为2.017µm。使用通过高温溶液生长法生长的1毫米厚、4% Ho:YVO₄固态可饱和吸收体，观察到了能量为3.5 mJ、持续时间为45 ns的单个调Q激光脉冲。
