Recent development in laser crystals with 3d ions

  • Chapter
Optical Properties of 3d-Ions in Crystals: Spectroscopy and Crystal Field Analysis

Abstract

This chapter will give an overview about the recent advances on the fieldof lasers, based on the 3d ions. The main focus is set on the lasercharacteristics and results obtained within the last few years.In general, transition metals are elements of the 3rd, 4th and 5th row in the periodictable. However, laser oscillation was only obtained thus far mainly withions of transition metals of the 3rd row (Fe-row, Ti to Cu); therefore, thefocus of this chapter is on these ions. The outstanding characteristics ofthese ions i.e. their broad band emission, is caused by the fact that theirelectronic levels couple strongly to the surrounding field which isestablished by the crystalline environment, forming the so called vibronic levels. Therefore, transition metal ion lasers usually are tunable over a widespectral range up to several to hundreds of nanometers, making theminteresting sources for frequency comb generation, short pulse generationas well as for applications in many scientific fields, were coherenttunable laser radiation is essential.
