A while ago, I read a few articles about Nd:GdVO4 being more efficient than Nd:YVO4. However, most DPSS lasers still use Nd:YVO4. Do you think Nd:GdVO4 will come to hobbyist lasers in the near future?
Also, RTP is supposedly very similar to KTP, except that the former has almost twice the damage threshold of KTP. Is there any reason why we're not using RTP in green lasers?
