Optical spectroscopy and fluorescence dynamics of Er^3+ in Ca_3Sc_2Ge_3O_12 crystal

Optical spectroscopy and local structure of Er3+ luminescence centres in СaO–Ga2O3–GeO2 glasses

“…1). In accordance with the energy level diagram and the literature data [19][20][21][22], all the observed absorption bands (see Fig. 1) were assigned to appropriate f-f electronic transitions of Er 3+ ions from the 4 I 15/2 ground state to the following excited states: 4 G 9/2 , 4 G 11/2 , 2 G 9/2 , 4 F 3/2 , 4 F 5/2 , 4 F 7/2 , 2 H 11/2 , 4 S 3/2 , 4 F 9/2 , 4 I 9/2 , 4 I 11/2 and 4 I 13/2 .…”

Influence of europium oxide doping on the structural and optical properties of pulsed laser ablated barium tungstate thin films

“…Photoluminescence study of different crystalline metal oxide ceramics doped mainly with rare earth ions such as Eu 3+ , Er 3+ , Nd 3+ etc., revealed a considerable potential of these materials in optoelectronic applications [5,6]. These compounds can be widely used as phosphors in cathode-ray tubes, field emission, vacuum fluorescent and electroluminescent displays as well as scintillators in X-ray and positron emission tomography [5][6][7][8][9]. The optical properties of trivalent rare-earth ions (RE 3+ ) in tungstate materials with scheelite structure have been widely investigated [10][11][12][13], especially due to their attractive third order nonlinear dielectric susceptibilities [14,15].…”

Growth, thermal and spectral characterization of Er3+-doped Li2Gd4(MoO4)7 crystal

“…The 1.5 mm Er 3+ emission is eye-safe, besides, it is close to the minimum of the optical losses in silica fibers, and has an important application for long-distance optical communication. Therefore, the Er 3+ -doped crystal materials were widely investigated [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. With the rapid development of diode laser, there has been an increasing interest in the research of Er 3+ -doped diode-pumped solid-state lasers materials.…”
