Abstract The Yb:YAG is an excellent high-average power and ultra-short pulse laser crystal. Transition intensity parameters Atpk and Huang-Rhys factors are fitted to its emission spectrum by the full-profile fitting method. Calculated results indicate that the emission spectrum of Yb:YAG at cryogenic temperature consists of three pure electron state transitions and two phonon-assisted transitions, one vibronic transition releases one-phonon of 3 cm-1, and the other vibronic transition absorbs one-phonon of 22 cm-1. At 300 K, the phonon assisted transition of 3 cm-1 turns into two-or more-phonon assisted transitions. The procedure absorbing phonon can reduce the thermal load of Yb:YAG and improve the laser efficiency, which may be one of the reasons why Yb:YAG has excellent performance. The emission bands of Yb:YAG are broadened thermally, and the peak values decrease by several times. The emission cross sections of Yb:YAG determined by Fuchtbauer-Ladenburg (F-L) formula are remarkably different from those calculated with Atpk, which indicates that it is necessary for a laser material to determine its transition intensity parameters Atpk in order to reasonably evaluate the laser performance.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
