掺钕磷酸盐玻璃的小信号增益性能

测试了应用于神光Ⅱ系列装置93片N31型钕玻璃的小信号增益系数。结果表明,Nd2O3质量分数为2.2%的钕玻璃平均小信号增益系数为0.0387 cm-1,Nd2O3质量分数为3.0%的钕玻璃平均小信号增益系数为0.0416 cm-1,两种浓度的钕玻璃不同样品间小信号增益系数的起伏范围分别为0.86%和0.76%。根据所测定的增益值,表明N31型钕玻璃的增益起伏符合神光Ⅱ系列装置要求,为实现该装置中每一路增益性能的平衡提供了有力保障,也为今后对更大尺寸钕玻璃增益性质的控制提供了经验。     

Raman and optical absorption spectroscopic investigation of Yb-Er codoped phosphate glasses containing SiO_2

Yb-Er codoped Na2O-Al2O3-P2O5-xSiO2 glasses containing 0 - 20 mol% SiO2 were prepared successfully. The addition of SiO2 to the phosphate glass not only lengthens the bond between pS＋ and non-bridging oxygen but also reduces the number of P=O bond. In contrast with silicate glass in which there is only four-fold coordinated Si4＋, most probably there coexist [SiO4] tetrahedron and [SiO6] oetahedron in our glasses. Within the range of 0 - 20 mol% SiO2 addition, the stimulated emission cross-section of Era＋ ion only decreases no more than 10%. The Judd-Ofelt intensity parameters of Er3＋, Ω2 does not change greatly, but Ω4 and Ω6 decrease obviously with increasing SiO2 addition, because the bond between Er3＋ and O2- is more strongly eovalently bonded.     

Mixed heavy metal effect on emission properties of Er~(3+)-doped borosilicate glasses

Er3+-doped heavy metal borosilicate glasses were prepared using conventional melting and quenching method. The emission spectra of 4I13/2 → 4I15/2 transition were observed upon excitation at 974 nm and the lifetime of 4I13/2 level of Er3+ was measured. Based on these data, the fluorescence properties of Er3+ are investigated on the emission and gain characteristics at the 1.5 μm bands. In particular, the effect of relative heavy metal content on fluorescence properties is discussed.

Energy storage and heat deposition in Cr,Yb,Er co-doped phosphate glass

Energy storage and heat deposition in Cr,Yb,Er co-doped phosphate glass were reported. A model based on rate equations was used to determine the energy storage from the free-oscillating output energy characteristics. The heat deposition was calculated by measuring the temperature rise of the glass rod. The results provided important information for the glass operating in Q-switched mode, and also for calculating the temperature profiles and cooling requirements of the glass under single shot and repetitive pulsed conditions.
