The sesquioxide crystal Yb3$+$:Lu2O3 is known to be a gain medium with excellent properties for high average power thin-disk lasers due to its low quantum defect of 5.6 \% \1\ and relatively high thermal conductivity of 12 W/mK \2\. However, the growth of Yb3$+$:Lu2O3 single crystals is challenging due to its high melting point of 2450 °C \1\. Improvements in ceramic manufacturing techniques as shown in \3\ offer poly-crystalline Yb3$+$:Lu2O3 ceramics with low transmission losses and being free of pores.
