痕量La杂质对CaF2晶体γ辐照诱导色心光谱特性的影响

氟化钙晶体的抗γ射线辐照性能是其在太空应用的关键性能之一。本文报道了痕量La杂质对氟化钙晶体γ辐照诱导色心的影响。主要采用吸收光谱、电子顺磁共振(EPR)等手段对辐照前后存在不同痕量La杂质的氟化钙晶体进行研究。结果表明，辐照后的氟化钙晶体产生多个色心吸收带，且吸收带的吸收系数随辐照剂量和La杂质浓度增加而增加。EPR证实这种吸收带的形成是由氟化钙晶体中F心引起的，而La³⁺的存在影响氟化钙晶体F心的稳定性和光谱位置，本文提出了La³⁺与氟化钙晶体中F心存在的可能机制。     

Ce3+掺杂SiO2-Al2O3-Gd2O3玻璃的闪烁性能

通常, Ce离子掺杂的低密度玻璃有较高的发光效率, 而高密度的Ce离子掺杂玻璃其发光效率很低. 为了解释这一现象, 采用高温熔融法获得了SiO₂-Al₂O₃-Gd₂O₃三元系统的玻璃形成区, 并在还原气氛下制备了Ce³⁺掺杂SiO₂-Al₂O₃-Gd₂O₃以及SiO₂-Al₂O₃-Gd₂O₃-Ln₂O₃ (Ln=Y, La, Lu)闪烁玻璃, 研究了其光谱和闪烁性能. 测试结果显示: 随着Gd₂O₃含量增加, 玻璃紫外截止波长发生红移, 荧光强度降低, 衰减时间缩短; 加入Lu₂O₃, La₂O₃, Y₂O₃后, 紫外截止波长发生红移, 荧光强度降低, 衰减时间变短; 当Gd₂O₃超过10% mol时, X射线荧光积分光产额从相当于锗酸铋 晶体的61%降低到13%. 荧光强度降低、衰减时间缩短的原因是随着玻璃的紫外截止波长红移玻璃的能带宽度变窄, 使得Ce³⁺离子的d电子轨道开始接近玻璃的导带, Ce³⁺离子受辐射后跃迁到d电子轨道的电子会通过导带与玻璃中的空穴复合, 产生电荷迁移猝灭效应.

Effect of power scale of 974 and 633 nm lasers on the induced loss at 633 nm of Yb~(3+)/Al~(3+) co-doped silica fiber

Induced loss at 633 nm is tested in Yb~(3+)∕Al~(3+)co-doped silica fiber by a core pumped with a 974 nm laser and probed with a 633 nm laser. The fiber is prepared by the modified chemical vapor deposition method combined with solution doping. Different power scales of pump light and probe light are used in the tests. It is found that there is a dynamic equilibrium between photobleaching induced by 633 nm probe light and photodarkening(PD)induced by 974 nm pump light. For the first time to our knowledge, the effect of 633 nm probe laser power on an induced loss test of Yb~(3+)∕Al~(3+)co-doped silica fiber is studied quantitatively. It suggests that as long as the633 nm probe light power is less than 0.2 m W, the induced loss is mainly contributed by the PD effect of pumping light, and the deviation of induced loss is less than 5%.
