Abstract

Cr-doped garnets such as YSAG and YSGG emit broadband Cr fluorescence in the near-infrared spectral region. Due to a resonant dipole-dipole interaction between Cr3+ and rare earth ions like Nd3+, Tm3+, and Ho3+, efficient nonradiative transfer can be achieved in such Cr-sensitized systems. Even Cr3+ in YAG with a rather narrowband emission at a strong crystal field site can be used to sensitize especially Tm3+ because of the overlap between the Cr emission and Tm absorption in YAG.
