Single crystals of Yb, Nd: KLu(WO₄)₂ (Yb, Nd: KLW) of dimensions up to 40mm x 40mm x 5mm have been grown by top-seeded solution growth (TSSG) method. X-ray powder diffraction pattern was measured and compared with that of Nd: KLuW and Yb: KLuW. Absorption and fluorescence spectra were measured at room temperature. The Judd-Ofelt theory was applied to analyze the spectrum of Nd, Yb: KLuW crystal. The intensity parameters were calculated.
