Especially, the pulsed 2μm lasers with high peak power are efficient pump sources for 3~12μm mid-infrared optical parametric oscillators (OPOs). In the past twenty years, the Tm3+ and Ho3+ doped laser materials are the main gain medium to obtain 2μm laserradiation and have been widely investigated. Nowadays, some scientific research and social production require the 2μm lasers operated under room temperature with high efficiency and high power. Currently, only Ho3+ singly-doped solid-state lasers can meet this condition but research progress is somehow slow due to its technical difficulty. In account of this, this dissertation intends to make efforts on the research of quasi-two-level Ho3+ singly-doped mixed oxide matrix with its lasing generation mechanism and relating technology to obtain high efficiency laser output.Firstly, several important 2μm solid-state lasers have been described and analyzed detailedly and systematically, and the necessity for investigation of Ho3+ singly-doped lasers is pointed out via the comparison between various technologies.
