Demonstration of site-selective angular-resolved absorption spectroscopy of the 4I15∕2→4I13∕2 erbium transition in the monoclinic crystal Y2SiO5

We study the angular dependence in polarized light of the optical absorption for the Er3+transition 4I15∕2→4I13∕2in Y2SiO5, revealing thus the associated anisotropy and the orientation of the related absorption principal directions in the dielectric plan perpendicular to the monoclinic axis b. The m...
