Growth and spectral properties of Pr3+: LaB3O6 single crystal
Pr3+:LaB3O6 single crystal with size up to diameter 20 mm x 22 mm has been grown by the Czochralski method. The structure of Pr3+ :LaB3O6 crystal was proved by X-ray powder diffraction. The absorption and fluorescence spectra of Pr3+:LaB3O6 crystal were measured at room temperature, and the fluorescence lifetime of the D-1(2) manifold was estimated from the fluorescence decay curve. The spectral properties related to laser performance of the crystal were also evaluated. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
