We have reported the crystal growth of a new laser crystal:Na:NaY(WO 4) 2 in this paper.And the transmission and emission spectra of this crystal with different Nd 3+ concentrations were measured.Using a Ti:Sapphire laser as the pumping source,the laser performance at 1 060 nm was carried out.The laser threshold was 25 mW and the maximum output power of 192 mW was obtained with an incident pump power of 548 mW when the T=3 % output coupler was used.This corresponded to an optical to optical effciency of 35 %.
