Abstract: © 2020 Optical Society of America under the terms of the OSA Open Access Publishing Agreement We report on the crystal growth, spectroscopy and first laser operation of a novel double molybdate compound - Tm:KY(MoO4)2. This orthorhombic (sp. gr. Pbna) crystal exhibits strong anisotropy of the spectroscopic properties due to its layered structure. The maximum stimulated emission cross-section for the 3F4 → 3H6 transition is 2.70×10−20 cm2 at 1856nm with a bandwidth of >110 nm (for E || b). The lifetime of the 3F4 state is 2.29 ms. Crystalline films and plates (thickness down to 70 µm) of high optical quality are obtained by mechanical cleavage along the (100) plane. Continuous-wave diode-pumped laser operation is achieved in such thin films and plates yielding a maximum output power of 0.88 W at ∼1.9 µm with a slope efficiency of 65.8% and a linearly polarized laser output. Vibronic lasing is demonstrated at ∼2.06 µm. Tm:KY(MoO4)2 is promising for microchip and thin-disk lasers.
