title = "Low-Threshold and Highly Efficient Gd3+, Lu3+Co-doped KY(WO4)2:Yb3+ Planar Waveguide Lasers",
abstract = "Co-doping with optically inert Gd3+ and Lu3+ ions improves refractive-index contrast and light confinement in KY(WO4)2:Yb3+ planar waveguides. Lasing with 18 mW threshold and record-high slope efficiency of 82.3% versus absorbed pump power is demonstrated.",
