SPECTROSCOPIC INVESTIGATION OF Sm IN YAG CERAMIC
نویسندگان
چکیده
An analysis of the high resolution optical spectra (at 10 or 300 K) of Sm in YAG transparent ceramics is presented. The peculiarities of the spectra in ceramics are outlined. Accurate data for the application of Sm: YAG ceramic to suppress parasitic oscillations in high power Nd: YAG ceramic composite lasers are obtained.

The effect of slip casting parameters on the ultrafine microstructure and density of pore-free YAG ceramic obtained by vacuum sintering
In this study, the effect of slip casting parameters on the ultrafine microstructure and the density of pore-free YAG ceramic was evaluated. A stable, high concentrated aqueous YAG slurry using Dolapix-CE64 as a dispersant was prepared. The effect of dispersant concentration as well as the solid load on the stability and rheological behavior of the slurry was also studied. The optimal dispersan...
متن کاملDiode edge-pumped passively Q-switched microchip laser
There is an increasing demand for high-intensity subnanosecond lasers for emerging industrial applications. While femtosecond and picosecond laser sources are considered promising, they suffer from the significant drawbacks of increased complexity and cost. In this regard, we demonstrate a unique edge-pumped passively Q-switched Nd∶YAG∕Cr4þ∶YAG microchip laser. The microchip is made of a Nd∶YAG...
متن کاملDeterministic single shot and multiple shots bulk damage thresholds for doped and undoped, crystalline and ceramic YAG
We measured the single-shot and multiple-shot damage thresholds of pure and Nddoped ceramic Yttrium Aluminum Garnet (YAG), and of pure, Nd-doped, Cr-doped, and Yb-doped crystalline YAG. We used 9.9 ns, single-longitudinal-mode, TEM00 pulses tightly focused inside the ceramic and crystalline YAG. The 8 microns radius of the focal spot was measured using surface third harmonic generation. With th...
متن کاملFT-Raman Spectroscopic Studies of Nd/YAG Laser Irradiated Human Dental Enamel
FTR-Raman Spectra of human dental enamel, both laser-irradiated and untreated, are reported. Spectra are compared with hydroxyapatite. It is evident that unlike the CO2 laser, the Nd/YAG laser does not induce any chemical change in dental enamel.
متن کاملInfrared and upconversion spectroscopic studies of high Ercontent transparent YAG ceramic
In this article, we report the detailed spectroscopic studies of high Ercontent (50%) transparent YAG ceramic co-doped with nominal Cr content (0.1 mol %). Various radiative and non-radiative spectroscopic properties such as radiative decay time, fluorescence branching ratio, emission/absorption cross sections, internal radiative quantum yields of the infrared and the upconverted emission bands...
