摘要	Cobalt-doped magnesium aluminate spinel (Co:MgAl2O4) is one of the most important saturable absorbers for the passive Q-switching of solid-state lasers operating at eye-safe wavelength of 1.5 μm. In this work, highly transparent Co:MgAl2O4ceramics were fabricated by vacuum sintering combined with hot isostatic pressing (HIP) post-treatment, using the mixture of the commercial spinel and the lab-made Co:MgAl2O4powder as the raw materials. The densification mechanism of Co:MgAl2O4transparent ceramics was discussed. The microstructure and optical properties of the samples were investigated. The ground state absorption cross section (σGSA) was calculated from the fitted curve of the absorption coefficient spectrum. The results show that Co:MgAl2O4ceramics fabricated by vacuum sintering at 1500 °C for 5 h and then HIP post-treatment at 1650 °C for 3 h perform good transparency, whose in-line transmittance exceeds 80% at 2500 nm. Moreover, the ground state absorption cross section of 0.02 at.% Co:MgAl2O4ceramics is calculated to be 3.35 × 10−19cm2at the wavelength of 1540 nm, which is promising for the application to the passive Q-switching of solid-state laser operating in the near infrared region (NIR). © 2017
