Abstract
Mixed lanthanide-magnesium aluminates and lasers using monocrystals of these aluminates. These lasers in particular incorporate two flash lamps for longitudinally pumping a monocrystalline rod of a magnetoplumbito-aluminate emitting visible or infrared light, amplified between a mirror, a polarizing prism being used for passing to the outside of the laser the amplified light beam. The aluminate is of formula: (La.sub.1-x Tr.sub.x).sub.1-y-v Mg.sub.1-z-t Al.sub.11-u+y+2Z/3 Cr.sub.u O.sub.19-t-3v/3 in which Tr represents (a) at least one single trivalent substance chosen from among lanthanides, Y.sup.3+, Sc.sup.3+, or (b) at least one pair of lanthanides formed from a divalent element and a trivalent element, while retaining the electrical neutrality by adding aluminum or oxygen deficiencies, or any combination of (a) and (b); x is a number such that 0.ltoreq.x<1; y and v are numbers such that 0.ltoreq.y+v.ltoreq.0.4; z and t are numbers such that 0.ltoreq.z+t<1, provided that when z=t=O, y+v is .noteq.0 for Tr representing a single trivalent lanthanide; u is a number between 0 and 2, provided that when Tr represents Y.sup.3+ or Sc.sup.3+ u is .noteq.0, that when x=0 u is .noteq.0 and that when u=0 x is .noteq.0.
