title: Tm:KY(WO(4))(2) waveguide laser.
abstract: High-quality monoclinic planar waveguide crystals of Tm-doped KY(WO(4))(2) were grown by liquid-phase epitaxy with several dopant concentrations and thicknesses. Waveguide lasing in the 2 mum spectral range was demonstrated in the fundamental mode. The maximum continuous-wave output power achieved was 32 mW using a Ti:sapphire laser pump near 800 nm.
