Abstract: | NdxLa2-xCaB10O19 crystals with different Nd3+ concentrations were grown by the high-temperature flux method and oriented for frequency doubling of 1340 nm wavelength radiation.
The room temperature spectroscopy (absorption, emission and lifetimes) of the 4
F
3/2 → 4
I
13/2 Nd3+ laser channel was investigated. We have clearly shown that two inequivalent Nd3+ centers in the La3+ and Ca2+ positions are responsible for the spectroscopic properties. Self-frequency doubling can be obtained from these two centers
at 661.1 and 671.5 nm.
