Photoinduced optical absorption in Ca3Ga2Ge3O12:Mn garnet

Abstract: Persistent photoinduced changes of optical absorption have been found in garnet Ca3Ga2Ge3O12 doped with manganese. Irradiation by a He–Ne laser of 633 nm wavelength results in a noticeable increase in the absorption coefficient of the crystal. The photoinduced changes are observed up to room temperature as distinct from concentrated manganese garnets in which the photoinduced absorption vanishes at much lower temperatures. The wide temperature range of the existence of the photoinduced effect together with a h… Show more

“…This class comprises media with completely different origins of the photorefractive response such as, e.g., photorefractive garnets [8,[13][14][15], nitroprussides [9,16], or crystals with DX center defects [10,17,18]. Although the recording of holograms has been investigated intensively in these media a convincing description of the respective kinetics is still missing and cannot be explained by the wellknown models.…”

“…The calcium gadolinium germanium garnet Ca 3 Ga 2 Ge 3 O 12 (CGGG), which belongs to the rich family of garnet-type laser-host crystals, is also well known as a substrate material for magnetic memories and optical recording . Structural and optical studies were recently carried out on Cr 3+ -doped CGGG phosphors in search of near-infrared (NIR) persistent luminescence materials. , Photo-induced optical absorption in Mn 3+ -doped CGGG single crystals was studied as promising optical recording material …”

“…Finally, in connection with photoinduced magnetism, it should be noted that in some crystals of the family of antiferromagnetic garnets Ca 3 Mn 2 Ge 3 O 12 , etc., photoinduced phenomena have been discovered by Eremenko, Gnatchenko, et al [41][42][43][44] Photoirradiation with visible light gives rise to long-lived changes: linear birefringence, magnetic moment in the antiferromagnetic state, and augmentation of optical absorption coefficient. The observed photoinduced changes of the optical and magnetic properties in antiferromagnetic garnets persist for a long time after the illumination is switched off.…”
