Abstract
Water-soluble single crystals are used for effective control of laser emission properties (intensity, polarization, wavelength, and alignment). They are especially widely used in cases where the size of the transverse cross section of the light beam is measured in units and tens of centimeters since the crystals grown from solution are the best available with respect to maximal dimension with retention of the required optical quality. This holds for a number of single crystals having physical properties suitable for use in laser technology.
