Electron-phonon coupling in iron-doped yttrium aluminum garnet
نویسندگان
چکیده
The electron-phonon coupling in iron-doped yttrium aluminum garnet crystals is studied in the theoretical framework of linear and quadratic coupling. The line shift and line broadening of the zero phonon line of iron centers as a function of temperature between 10 and 150 K is qualitatively and quantitatively explained. The spectroscopic features of the line, deduced from the theory of lattice relaxation and multiphonon transitions, is compared with experimental results. The perturbation model indicates a linear coupling of medium strength and a strong quadratic coupling, providing an understanding of the thermal properties of spectral lines of ions in solids. The evaluated Huang-Rhys parameter is 2.05 and the quadratic coupling factor is w =0.85. The estimated Debye temperature is about 450 K.

Introdouction: Dentinal hypersensitivity (DH) is one of the most painful chronic problems reported in dental offices. Various methods have been applied for the treatment of DH. However, majority of them are either ineffective or last for a short period of time. It has been reported that lasers, particularly Neodymium- doped: Yttrium Aluminum Garnet laser (Nd: YAG), can be helpful in the treatme...
متن کاملBulk optical damage thresholds for doped and undoped, crystalline and ceramic yttrium aluminum garnet.
We measured the bulk optical damage thresholds of pure and Nd-doped ceramic yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG), and of pure, Nd-doped, Cr-doped, and Yb-doped crystalline YAG. We used 9.9 ns, 1064 nm, single-longitudinal mode, TEM00 pulses, to determine that the breakdown thresholds are deterministic, with multiple-pulse thresholds ranging from 1.1 to 2.2 kJ/cm2.

Aluminum substituted yttrium iron garnet nano particles with compositional variation of Y(3.0-x) A1(x)Fe5O12, where x = 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0 were prepared using sol gel technique. The X-ray diffraction results showed that the best garnet phase appeared when the sintering temperature was 800 degrees C. Nano-crystalline particles with high purity and sizes ranging from 20 to 100 n...

We use Brillouin light scattering ~BLS! to study a series of single-crystal Bi-doped yttrium iron garnet Y32xBixFe5O12 ~Bi-YIG! prepared with x5 0, 0.14, 0.36, 0.54, and 0.92. BLS shows that the optimal laser power should be as low as possible, <5 mW. BLS manifests the Bi-concentration dependence of the magnetic and mechanic properties of Bi-YIG. Two bulk magnons are observed. One is the therma...
