Abstract
The interest in solid-state lasers has been renewed in the last decade. Diode-laser pumping, tunable lasers, and nonlinear optics are the main developing technologies to have revitalized the field of solid-state lasers. An overview of the more recent results in rare-earth and transition-metal doped systems is made in addition with the advances in frequency conversion by means of optical parametric oscillators.
