Crystal growth,spectroscopic characteristics,and Judd–Ofelt analysis of Dy:Lu_2O_3 for yellow laser

Dy:Lu_2O_3 was grown by the float-zone(Fz) method. According to the absorption spectrum, the Judd–Ofelt(JO) parameters ?_2, ?_4, and ?_6 were calculated to be 4.86 × 10~(-20) cm~2, 2.02 × 10~(-20) cm~2, and 1.76 × 10~(-20) cm~2, respectively.The emission cross-section at 574 nm corresponding to the ~4F6_(9/2)→~6H_(13/2) transition was calculated to be 0.53 × 10~(-20) cm~2.The yellow(~4F_(9/2)→~6H_(13/2) transition) to blue(~4F_(9/2)→~6H_(15/2) transition) intensity ratio ranges up to 12.9. The fluorescence lifetime of the ~4F_(9/2) energy level was measured to be 112.1 μs. These results reveal that Dy:Lu_2O_3 is a promising material for use in yellow lasers.     

Measurements of argon metastable density using the tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy in Ar and Ar/O_2

Densities of Ar metastable states 1s_5 and 1s_3 are measured by using the tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy(TDLAS) in Ar and Ar/O2 mixture dual-frequency capacitively coupled plasma(DF-CCP). We investigate the effects of high-frequency(HF, 60 MHz) power, low-frequency(LF, 2 MHz) power, and working pressure on the density of Ar metastable states for three different gas components(0%, 5%, and 10% oxygen mixed in argon). The dependence of Ar metastable state density on the oxygen content is also studied at different working pressures. It is found that densities of Ar metastable states in discharges with different gas components exhibit different behaviors as HF power increases. With the increase of HF power, the metastable density increases rapidly at the initial stage, and then tends to be saturated at a higher HF power. With a small fraction(5% or 10%) of oxygen added in argon plasma, a similar change of the Ar metastable density with HF power can be observed, but the metastable density is saturated at a higher HF power than in the pure argon discharge. In the DF-CCP, the metastable density is found to be higher than in a single frequency discharge, and has weak dependence on LF power. As working pressure increases, the metastable state density first increases and then decreases,and the pressure value, at which the density maximum occurs, decreases with oxygen content increasing. Besides, adding a small fraction of oxygen into argon plasma will significantly dwindle the metastable state density as a result of quenching loss by oxygen molecules.

Defect-Related Photoresponse and Polarization-Sensitive Photodetection of Single ZnO Nanowires

Defect-related photoconductivity of single ZnO nanowires is investigated. The photoconductivity shows powerlaw dependence with incident green laser intensity due to the defect mechanisms including both recombination centres and traps.
