Optical Spectra Properties and Continuous-Wave Laser Performance of Tm,Y:CaF2 Single Crystals
3 at.% Tm, x at.% Y:CaF2 crystals (x=0, 0.5, 1, 2, and 3) were grown by the vertical Bridgman method and investigated. Codoping Y3+ ions can manipulate the local structure of Tm3+ ions in the CaF2 crystal and then improve the spectroscopic properties. Compared with 3 at.% Tm:CaF2, 3 at.% Tm, 3 at.%...
