    Cubic sesquioxides, RE2O3, where RE = Y, Lu or Sc, are attractive host crystals for thulium (Tm3+) doping. A comparison of the spectroscopic properties of Tm3+:RE2O3 crystals in terms of transition cross sections and cross-relaxation (CR) efficiency required for efficient upconversion pumping is presented. Thermo-optic properties of Tm3+:RE2O3 crystals (thermal lensing, fractional heat loading, and thermo-optic coefficients) are described. The positive thermal lens, broadband emission, and efficient CR of the Tm:RE2O3 crystals enable the development of compact, highly efficient and power-scalable lasers operating above 2 mu m, based on thermal guiding. Nowadays, Tm:Lu2O3 microchip lasers are capable of generating nearly 5 W of output power at similar to 2.06 mu m with a slope efficiency eta of 67% and in a rod geometry-up to 47.5 W with eta of 59%. For multiwatt output at even longer wavelengths around 2.15 mu m, Tm:Sc2O3 is an interesting candidate.
