Abstract

The optical absorption and luminescence spectra of single crystals of yttrium aluminum borate YAl3(BO3)4 doped with manganese ions are measured. It is established that the optical absorption spectra of yttrium aluminum borate single crystals doped with manganese ions are determined primarily by the contribution from the Mn4+ ions. The luminescence spectra of the YAl3(BO3)4 single crystals doped with manganese exhibit narrow lines attributed to the Mn4+ ions and an extended multiband structure which is associated primarily with the contribution from the Mn2+ ions.
