Efficient sensitization of Yb 3 + emission by Nd 3 + in Y 2 O 3 transparent ceramics and the prospect for high-energy Yb lasers

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Very efficient energy transfer from Nd3+ to Yb3+ in transparent Y2O3 ceramics in the temperature range 10–300 K is demonstrated. It is inferred that this shows potential for the construction of high-energy Yb3+ lasers under diode or flash-lamp excitation of Nd3+.
