A laser device which has an excellent characteristic originally exerted by an yttrium-aluminum-garnet crystal doped with neodymium and is entirely reduced in size by using an entirely downsized laser medium is provided. The laser device is constituted such that a laser medium is disposed in a resonator, excited light is incident upon the laser medium so as to cause laser oscillation in the resonator, and laser light is emitted from the resonator. An yttrium-aluminum-garnet single crystal is used as the laser medium, in which neodymium is added at a concentration exceeding an atomicity ratio of 1.3%.
