The main structure of laser glass
Laser glass consists of two parts: matrix glass and activated ions. The various physical and chemical properties of laser glass are mainly determined by the matrix glass, while its spectral properties are mainly determined by the activated ions. However, the matrix glass and the activated ions interact with each other, so the activated ions have a certain influence on the physical and chemical properties of the laser glass, and the influence of the matrix glass on its spectral properties is sometimes quite important.
