Direct bonding Nd:YAG to sapphire wafers
We demonstrate chemical-assisted direct bonding of 450μm-thick neodymium-doped YAG to 660μm-thick sapphire wafers. Diced, polished and AR-coated the composite was trialed in a pump-guided free-space laser. Preliminary performance and future prospects will be discussed.

Abstract

We demonstrate chemical-assisted direct bonding of 450μm-thick neodymium-doped YAG to 660μm-thick sapphire wafers. Diced, polished and AR-coated the composite was trialed in a pump-guided free-space laser. Preliminary performance and future prospects will be discussed.
