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.     

Powder synthesis and spectroscopic properties of ytterbium-doped yttrium oxysulfide

Ytterbium-doped yttrium oxysulfide(Yb:Y_2O_2S)has been synthesized by solid-state reaction with sulfide flux.Diffuse reflection and emission spectra have been measured in order to determine the crystal field splitting of Yb~(3 )ion in the YOS lattice.According to the crystal-field levels probed in the spectra,the crystal field splitting of ~2F_(7/2)manifold of Yb~(3 )ion in YOS is 709 cm~(-1),which is large enough for the quasi-three-level laser operation of Yb~(3 )ion.Emission peak position,width,full-width at half maximum (FWHM),and normalized intensity of Yb:YOS are fitted from its emission spectrum.For comparison, relevant data of 5.4 at.-% Yb:YAG is also provided.     

Dual-wavelength synchronously mode-locked Tm-doped bulk laser with terahertz frequency beating

A dual-wavelength synchronously mode-locked homogeneously broadened bulk laser operating at 1985.6 and1989 nm is presented for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, which delivers a maximum output power of 166 m W and a repetition rate of 85 MHz. The pulse duration was measured to be 16.8 ps by assuming a sech~2 pulse shape. The recorded autocorrelation trace showed frequency beating signals with an interval of 3.8 ps and a full width at half-maximum duration of 2 ps, corresponding to an ultrahigh beating frequency of about0.26 THz, which agrees well with the frequency difference of the emitted two spectral peaks. The results indicated that such a kind of dual-wavelength mode-locked Tm:YAlO_3 laser could be potentially used for generating terahertz radiations.

Yb:CaF2-SrF2激光晶体光谱性能以及热学性能的研究

采用坩埚下降法生长了Yb: CaF₂-SrF₂晶体,测试了该晶体的吸收和荧光光谱 以及在不同温度下晶体的热扩散系数和热膨胀系数,并且计算了晶体的热膨胀系数以及在常温下的热导率. 采用对比的方法,对晶体的吸收光谱,荧光光谱,热学性能进行了分析.从吸收和荧光光谱结果表明: 在掺杂相对较高浓度的SrF₂的混晶中, Yb³⁺吸收截面和发射截面比较大. Yb: CaF₂-SrF₂ (19%)晶体在1040 nm附近的发射截面比较大,光谱也比较宽. 这说明在掺杂相同浓度Yb时,混晶中CaF₂, SrF₂的比例不同,晶体的光谱性质不同, 主要原因是在混晶中晶体的无序度不同,晶体对称性降低,形成低对称光学中心. 从热扩散系数计算的热导率结果看出晶体具有比较好的热导率.
