Nd3+:GGG and Cr4+:GGG epitaxial films for neodymium lasers

An efficient technology was developed for growing the gadolinium gallium garnet (GGG) single-crystal films doped with Nd³⁺ or Cr and Ca ions. The films with thickness up to 100 μm have been grown by liquid-phase epitaxy method on undoped GGG substrates of small and big sizes (5–8 mm and up to 76 mm in diameter, respectively). The dependence of absorption, luminescence spectra and optical losses at the wavelength of 1 μm on growth temperature and melt-solution composition was studied. We demonstrated that Cr⁴⁺ centers have been implemented in epitaxial films and these films may be used as passive Q-switches for laser systems.     

X α studies of laser crystals

This paper reports the spin-polarized self-consistent-charge discrete variational (SCC-DV-X ) calculations for the garnets GGG(Ca, Mg, Zr), GGG, YGG and YAG. The calculated values of 10Dq for these garnets are reported for the first time, and are in good agreement with the experimental values. The relation between the calculated values and the distances of the central ion and the ligand ions is discussed. The energy values of the doublet state² E _g were also obtained, and the reason why YAG:Cr³⁺ only emits sharp fluorescence whereas GGG(Ca, Mg, Zr):Cr³⁺ can also emit strong broad fluorescence are explained.     

Optical characterization of Cr3+ centers in LiNbO3

Low-temperature luminescence spectra of stoichiometric Cr:LiNbO₃, congruent Cr:LiNbO₃ and congruent Cr,Mg:LiNbO₃ were studied. Dominant low-field and minor high-crystal-field optical centers are the Cr³⁺ impurity ions that preferentially occupy Li⁺ sites (Cr_Li) in the Cr:LiNbO₃ crystals. Low-field centers related to Cr³⁺ substitution of Nb⁵⁺ (Cr_Nb) occur in addition to Cr_Li in co-doped Cr,Mg:LiNbO₃ samples. Application of high hydrostatic pressure leads to the transformation of dominant Cr³⁺ centers from low- to high-field type due to strong pressure-induced blue shift of the ⁴ T ₂ state, resulting in its crossing with the ² E state of Cr³⁺. This level-crossing effect was observed for the dominant Cr³⁺ _Li and Cr³⁺ _Nb centers at pressures that correlate well with estimations based on the ⁴ T ₂-² Eenergy gap (230 cm^-1 and 1160 cm^-1) and on the rate of their pressure-induced change (14.35 and 11.4 cm^-1/kbar, respectively). We also studied inhomogeneous broadeningof the ² E?⁴ A ₂transitions at ambient pressure for the minor high-field “defect” Cr³⁺ _Li centers in congruent LiNbO₃. A fine structure in the spectral response of these centers was observed. The obtained results are discussed on the basis of a microscopic hierarchic model for perturbed Cr³⁺ ions in the LiNbO₃ lattice. Received: 25 June 2001 / Published online: 2 November 2001

Energy Spectra of the Tunable Laser Crystal Gd3Ga5O12:Cr3+ and Their Pressure-Induced Shifts

By means of both the theory for pressure-induced shifts (PS) of energy spectra and the theory for shifts of energy spectra due to electron-phonon interaction (EPI), at 300 K, the `pure electronic' contributions and the contributions from EPI to R₁ line, R₂ line, and U band of GGG:Cr³⁺ as well as their PS have been calculated, respectively. The total calculated results are in good agreement with all the experimental data. Their physical origins have been explained. It is found that the mixing-degree of |t₂²(³T₁)e ⁴T₂> and |t₂³²E> base-wavefunctions in the wavefunctions of R₁ level of GGG:Cr³⁺ is considerable under normal pressure, and the mixing-degree rapidly decreases with increasing pressure. The change of the mixing-degree with pressure plays a key role for PS of R₁ line or R₂ line. At 300 K, both the temperature-independent contribution to R₁ line (or R₂ line or U band) from EPI and the temperature-dependent one are important. The remarkable difference between pressure-dependent behaviors of PS of R₁ lines of GGG:Cr³⁺ and GSGG:Cr³⁺ results from the differences of their microscopic properties. The features of emission spectra of GGG:Cr³⁺ at various pressures have satisfactorily been explained.     

Cr,Mg:GSGG 晶体生长、光谱性能及Cr4+形成机理的研究

采用传统提拉法单晶生长技术成功生长出了Cr,Mg:GSGG晶体, 并对生长出的晶体样品进行了氧化气氛和还原气氛退火处理. 通过对比分析退火处理前后样品吸收光谱的变化, 推断出晶体中四面体配位Cr⁴⁺离子的形成机理为: 晶体生长和高温氧化气氛退火的过程中, 四价Cr⁴⁺离子首先在八面体格位上形成, 然后在热激发作用下与邻近四面体格位上的Ga³⁺离子发生置换反应, 从而形成一定浓度的四面体配位Cr⁴⁺离子. 实验结果还表明, 随着电荷补偿离子Mg²⁺离子浓度的增大, 更有利于提高四面体配位Cr⁴⁺离子的浓度.     

Dominant Cr3+ centers in LiNbO3 under hydrostatic pressure

Low-temperature luminescence spectra of stoichiometric Cr: LiNbO₃ and of congruent Cr, Mg: LiNbO₃ were studied. Cr³⁺ impurity ions preferentially occupy Li⁺ sites (Cr_Li) in the LiNbO₃ crystal lattice, while Cr³⁺ ions substituting for Nb⁵⁺ ions (Cr_Nb) occur in addition to Cr_Li centers in codoped Cr, Mg: LiNbO₃ crystals. Application of a high hydrostatic pressure leads to a transformation of (dominant in concentration) Cr³⁺ centers from low-to high-crystal-field centers. Due to a strong pressure-induced blue shift of the ⁴ T ₂ state resulting in crossing with the ² E state, the replacement of the broad band ⁴ T ₂ → ⁴ A ₂ emission by a narrow R-line emission ² E → ⁴ A ₂ occurs in the luminescence spectra of the samples. This effect of level crossing was observed for the dominant Cr _Li ³⁺ and Cr _Nb ³⁺ centers at pressures which correlated well with estimations based on the ⁴ T ₂-² E energy gap (230 and 1160 cm^?1) and on the rate of their pressure-induced change (14.35 and 11.4 cm^?1/kbar, respectively).     

Multisites Cr3+ in GGG and GSGG garnets

The emission and excitation spectra of Cr³⁺ -doped Gd₃Ga₅O₁₂ (GGG) and Gd₃Sc₂Ga₃O₁₂ (GSGG) are explained in the light of multisite effects. The situation is particularly complicated in the case of GSGG, where the different sites have²E energy levels near each other which overlap with the⁴A₂ →⁴T₂ absorption bands. The spectra obtained under selective excitations are interpreted on the multisite assumption.     

Crystal growth and optical properties of Cr3+, Er3+, RE3+: Gd3Ga5O12 (RE=Tm,Ho, Eu) for mid-IR laser applications

In this paper we report on the optical properties of triply Cr³⁺, Er³⁺, and RE³⁺ (RE=Tm, Ho, Eu) doped Gd₃Ga₅O₁₂ crystals that were grown by the Czochralski method. Optical absorption, near-infrared (NIR), and mid-infrared (mid-IR) fluorescence spectra were characterized for the fabricated crystals and corresponding luminescence decay measurements under 654 nm excitation were also carried out. Based on the analysis of energy transfer process between Er and RE (RE=Tm, Ho, Eu) ions, the energy transfer efficiency (ETE) values were evaluated, correspondingly. From the spectral data of all the studied crystals, it is observed that the co-doped Cr³⁺ ion highly increases the absorption pump power and the three kinds of co-doped RE³⁺ ions depopulate the Er:⁴I_13/2 energy level effectively. The spectral analysis shows that titled rare earth doped crystals are promising materials for ～3.0 μm mid-IR laser applications and among them Cr,Er,Eu:GGG is relatively more suitable due to its excellent optical properties compared with others.
