Journal of Applied Spectroscopy Aims and scope

Abstract

Yb3+ (2.7 at.%):Na4Y6F22 and Yb3+(1 at.%):LiLuF4 crystals were grown by the Bridgman-Stockbarger method. We measured the temperature dependences of the thermal conductivity of the crystals and the absorption spectra. We determined the radiative lifetime of the Yb3+ ion in these crystals (1.94 msec and 2.13 msec) and calculated the stimulated emission cross section spectra.
