Abstract
Some ion doped crystals of the transient group of metals have a broad band of luminescence in the VIS/IR spectral region, and thus they are suitable for the design of tunable lasers free from a series of disadvantages of tunable dye lasers. Physical properties and advantages of solid state lasers using the Ti-doped sapphire and Cr-doped forsterite crystals are reviewed.
