Effects of fabrication methods on spin relaxation and crystallite quality in Tm-doped Y3Al5O12 powders studied using spectral hole burning

High-quality rare-earth-ion (REI) doped materials are a prerequisite for many applications such as quantum memories, ultra-high-resolution optical spectrum analyzers and information processing. Compared to bulk materials, REI doped powders offer low-cost fabrication and a greater range of accessible...
