Nd doped phosphate glass have been widely used in high average power laser solid state lasers，laser material processing, range finder and other industrial and scientific applications。 
CLASER mainly offers Nd 3+ doped phosphate glasses (N31). CLASER Nd 3+ phosphate glasses are guaranteed in optical qualities such as homogeneity, striation, stress birefringence, Pt inclusions etc. The different neodymium doping phosphate glasses are ready for your quest. We have stocked 0.7%, 3.0%, and 4.0% doped N31
