Laser action in Nd(3+)-doped lanthanum oxysulfide powders.
We have investigated the stimulated emission properties of Nd(3+) doped La(2)O(2)S powders at room temperature as a function of pumping energy density, excitation wavelength, and Nd(3+) ion concentration. The absolute stimulated emission energy has been measured. Expressions for the slope efficiencies and lasing thresholds as a function of rare earth concentration and pumping wavelengths, which...
متن کاملInfluence of Upconversion Processes in the Optically-Induced Inhomogeneous Thermal Behavior of Erbium-Doped Lanthanum Oxysulfide Powders
The efficient infrared-to-visible upconversion emission present in Er-doped lanthanum oxysulfide crystal powders is used as a fine thermal sensor to determine the influence of upconversion processes on the laser-induced thermal load produced by the pump laser and to assess the potentialities of this material in order to obtain anti-Stokes laser-induced cooling. The analysis of the upconversion ...
متن کاملEnhanced laser cooling of rare-earth-ion-doped nanocrystalline powders
The enhanced laser cooling performance of rare-earth-ion-doped nanocrystalline powders is predicted, compared to the bulk material, using Yb:Y2O3 as the model material. This is achieved by enhancing the off-resonance, phonon-assisted absorption, which is proportional to the three factors considered in this paper: the dopant concentration, the pumping field energy, and the excitation coefficient...
متن کاملC-band single-longitudinal mode lanthanum co-doped bismuth based erbium doped fiber ring laser.
We propose and demonstrate a stable, tunable and narrow linewidth C-band lanthanum co-doped bismuth based erbium doped fiber (EDF) ring laser with single longitudinal mode (SLM) operation. A free space thin film filter acts as a wavelength discriminative component selecting a few oscillating modes while a Lyot filter formed by a polarization maintaining (PM) fiber and a linear polarizer further...
متن کاملOn the origin of bichromatic laser emission in Nd3+-doped fluoride glasses.
In this work we present a detailed study about the influence of the host matrix in the spectroscopic and laser properties of Nd3+ in three different fluoride glasses. Site-selective time-resolved techniques have been used to investigate the crystal field changes felt by the Nd3+ ion as a consequence of glass inhomogeneity. Stimulated emission experiments performed under selective wavelength las...
