UMD: Solid-state lasers with a rod of yttrium-aluminum-garnet crystal doped with neodymium, a rare earth element, as the active medium. Their emission wavelength is 1,064 nm (near infrared), although sometimes operated in other transitions (e.g., 1,319 nm). These lasers are operated in continuous-wave, pulsed, Q-switched, and mode-locked modes. The laser energy can be delivered through a flexible optical glass fiber.
