7.3 W of single-frequency output power at 2.09 μm from an Ho:YAG monolithic nonplanar ring laser

Single-frequency output power of 7.3 W at 2.09 mu m from a monolithic Ho:YAG nonplanar ring oscillator (NPRO) is demonstrated. Resonantly pumped by a Tm-doped fiber laser at 1.91 mu m, the Ho:YAG NPRO produces 71% of slope efficiency with respect to absorbed pump power and nearly diffraction-limited output with a beam quality parameter of M-2 approximate to 1.1.

4-[3-(1,2,4-Triazol-1-yl)propionyl]phenyl 4-fluorobenzoate

In the title compound, C-18(14)3(3)H(FN)O, the dihedral angles made by the triazole ring with the plane of the central benzene ring and the p-fluorophenylcarbonyl group are 82.09 ( 2) and 82.05 (2), respectively. There are weak C-H...O intra- and intermolecular interactions in the crystal structure, which contribute to the stability.
