摘要：

The spectral and lasing properties of Cr2+ : ZnS and Cr2+ : ZnSe crystals pumped by Raman-shifted nanosecond neodymium lasers are studied. Tunable pulsed lasing is obtained in the mid-IR range between 2.05 and 2.40 mum. The minimum lasing threshold was 170 muJ at the maximum slope efficiency of 20%.
