The rapid developments in optical and electronic technologies have accelerated developments of solid state laser technology. The diode-pumped solid state laser has the merits of the diode laser, such as compactness, low cost, and the merits of the solid state laser, such as high laser quality, high conversion efficiency, long lifetime, and simple structure. There use in laser applications is very cost-effective in terms of material consumption, which is typically one-thousandth that of bulk material. In addition, heat dissipation in the gain medium can be significantly alleviated because highly heat-conductive material can be applied to the circumference of the crystal fiber. So, it was applicated in electronics, communication and medicine widely. The laser-heated pedestal growth (LHPG) method is now a well-established technique for the growth of single-crystal fibers. It is crucible free and can therefore produce high-purity, low-defect-density single crystals. Interface loss is one of the dominant factors that reduce the efficiency of crystal fiber lasers, although cladding with a dielectric coating or in-diffusion of the gain core has been utilized to suppress this interface loss. Using a gradient-index Nd:YAG crystal fiber with peak Nd concentration up to 1.6-atm.%, we recently demonstrated a laser power of 145 mW and slope efficiency 28.9%. Peak Nd concentration up to 3.6-atm.% Nd:YAG crystal fiber with a 20-um core was grown, which could eliminate the interface loss and enhance the efficiency of crystal fiber lasers to be compatible with bulk solid-state lasers.
