大尺寸高浓度掺杂Nd：GGG和Nd：YAG晶体的光谱性质(英文)

由于Nd^3＋离子半径0．112nm和Y^3＋离子半径0．101nm相差10．9％，使得Nd^3＋离子非常难于进入YAG晶体中。我们用温度梯度法生长了大尺寸高浓度（2．8 at％）的Nd：YAG晶体，同时与用提拉法Nd：GGG晶体进行了比较。分析了高浓度掺杂Nd：GGG和Nd：YAG晶体浓度猝灭问题。研究了不同浓度掺杂的猝灭效应。在同样的掺杂浓度下，我们发现它们的猝灭程度不同，其原因是两种晶体中△Emism（-）和（＋） △Emism（＋） 不同。

A comparison between TGT and Cz grown Nd : YAG

Large sized neodymium-doped Y3Al5O12 (Nd:YAG) laser crystals have been grown by temperature gradient technique (TGT) method and compared with Czochralski (Cz) method. The comparison of these two crystal growth methods has been listed. The results showed that the TGT method has many advantages over the Cz method. The concentration distribution of Nd ions in the crystals was determined and the absorption spectra of these crystals have been investigated and compared. The TGT grown highly doped Nd:YAG crystal has a larger absorption FWHM than that of Cz grown Nd:YAG crysral. Highly doped Nd:YAG (similar to 2.8 at. pct) crystals could be obtained by TGT.

国产Nd：YAG陶瓷获得激光输出

近年来Nd：YAG多晶陶瓷作为激光介质得到了越来越多的重视，我国在这个方向也开展了大量的研究工作，Nd：YAG多晶陶瓷与Nd：YAG单晶相比有很多优点：容易制造、成本低、可以制造大尺寸和高掺杂浓度的材料，且无浓度梯度，机械特性良好，硬度比单晶大1．5倍，断裂韧度比单晶大5倍，并且可制备多层和多功能的陶瓷结构、可大批量生产，已经获得了比Nd：YAG单晶更高的效率，因此钇铝石榴石透明陶瓷是理想的钇铝石榴石单晶激光介质材料替代品。但国产陶瓷由于质量不佳，透明度不是很高，一直未能获得激光输出。

Optimization of thermal environment during crystal growth of large-sized Nd : YAG by Temperature Gradient Technique

A finite-element model is employed to analysis the thermal environments in Temperature Gradient Technique (TGT) furnace during the growth of large-sized Nd:YAG crystal. The obtained results show that when the crucible is located at the lower position inside of the heater, a flatter solid-liquid interface is established, which makes it easier to obtain the core-free Nd:YAG crystal. Meanwhile, the lower crucible position can induce higher axial temperature gradient, which is beneficial to the release of latent heat. (c) 2007 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.

Diode-pumped passively q-switched Nd : YAG ceramic laser with a Cr4+: YAG crystal-satiable absorber

Transparent polycrystalline Nd:YAG ceramics were fabricated by solid-state reactive sintering a mixture of commercial Al2O3,Y2O3, and Nd2O3 powders. The powders were mixed in ethanol and doped with 0.5 wt% tetraethoxysilane, dried, and pressed. Pressed samples were sintered at 1750 degrees C in vacuum. Transparent fully dense samples with average grain sizes of 10 mu m were obtained. The 1 at.% Nd:YAG ceramic was used to research passively Q-switched laser output with a Cr4+:YAG crystal as a saturable absorber. An average output power of 94 mW with a pulse width of 50 ns was obtained when the incident pump power was 750 mW. The slope efficiency was 13%. The pulse energy is 5 mu J, and the peak power is about 100 W.
