We demonstrate two ultra-stable laser systems at 1064 nm by independently stabilizing two 10-cm-long Fabry–Pérot cavities. The reference cavities are on a cubic spacer, which is rigidly mounted for both low sensitivity to environmental vibration and abili
A spatial optical switch phenomenon caused by the induced focusing of a weak probe beam occurring in self-defocusing nonlinear media is discussed theoretically. A weak beam is induced to focus when it copropagates with an intense pump beam under the condi
Fabrication technology of the Yb^(3 ):Er^(3 ) co-doped glass samples is introduced. Photoluminescence (PL) characteristics of a single sample were experimentally investigated. The PL peak intensities of two samples in series were measured and discussed. T
