Abstract: An improved method for direct measurement of the effective stimulated emission cross section σ_eff for neodymium ions in various matrices is proposed. The relationship between the cross sections measured using the luminescence dumping and traditional spectroscopic techniques is determined. Values of σ_eff are obtained for various crystals and it is shown that σ_eff can be measured in samples of poor optical quality, including powders.
