Nd:YAG (Neodymium Doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet, Nd:Y3Al5O12) has been and continues to be the most mature and most  widely used crystals for lasers, no matter solid state or lamp pumped, CW or pulsed. It possesses a combination of properties uniquely  favorable for laser operations. Nd:YAG crystals are used in all types of solid-state lasers systems-frequency-doubled continuous wave, high-energy Q-switched, and so on.

One of the most important drawbacks of popular LiNbO3 crystal is its susceptibility to photorefractive damage (optically induced change of refractive index, usually under exposure with blue or green CW light). The usual way to eliminate this effect is to keep LN crystals at elevated temperatures (400K or more). Another way to prevent photorefractive damage is MgO-doping (usually at levels of around 5 mol% for congruent LN).

Yb:YAG (Ytterbium-doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet) is one of the most promising laser-active materials with a large absorption bandwidth and typical emission at 1030 nm. Yb:YAG is more suitable for high power diode-pumped lasers than the traditional Nd-doped systems. The broad absorption band enables Yb:YAG to maintain uninterrupted pump efficiency across the typical thermal shift of diode output.

Nd:YVO4 is the most efficient laser crystal for diode-pumped solid-state lasers. The good physical, optical and mechanical properties make Nd:YVO4 an excellent material for high power, stable and cost-effective diode-pumped solid-state lasers.

Highly doped (50%) Erbium YAG is a well-known laser source for producing 2940nm emission, commonly used in medical (e.g. cosmetic skin resurfacing), and dental (e.g. oral surgery) applications due to the strong water and hydroxapatite absorption at this wavelength.Low doped (< 1%) Erbium YAG hase been studied as an efficient means to generate high power and high energy 1.6 micron 'eye-safe' laser emission thru 2 level resonant pumping schemes.

Nominally pure stoichiometric LiNbO3 shows lower photorefractive damage resistance than congruent crystal; however, stoichiometric crystals doped with MgO of more than 1.8 mol.

Periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) crystal and MgO: PPLN are a new kind of nonlinear optical crystal, which can realize high-efficiency frequency conversion such as frequency doubling, sum frequency, and optical parametric oscillation in wave brand from visible to mid-infrared.  When doped with 5% MgO, the photodamage threshold and photorefractive threshold of PPLN are greatly increased (compared to that of pure PPLN), and their performance is more stable and suitable for room temperature use.

Ytterbium Doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet (Yb:YAG) is more suitable for diode-pumping than the traditional Nd-doped laser crystal. Compared with the commonly used Nd:YAG, Yb:YAG has the following advantages: three to four times lower thermal loading per unit pump power and much larger absorption bandwidth to reduce thermal management requirements for diode lasers, longer upper-laser level lifetime.

Diffusion Bonding Crystal consists of two, three or more parts with different types. They are often used to decrease thermal lens effect, that is conducive to the stability of lasers and high-power laser operation.The Crystals being bonded could be a laser crystal doped with laser-active ions, and its counterparts without dopants (e.g. YAG + Nd :YAG).
