Neodymium Doped Yttrium Vanadate (Nd:YVO4) is the most efficient laser crystal for diode pumping among the current commercial laser crystals, especially, for low to medium power Lasers. This is mainly due to its absorption and emission features which surpass Nd:YAG. It has the characteristics of good thermal conductivity, large stimulated emission cross-section, wide absorption bandwidth. Because of these advantages, compact laser devices can be made by using small crystals. Another feature of Nd: YVO4 crystal is that it is uniaxial, it emits linearly polarized light
