摘要
High-quality single crystals of different Er3+ concentration doped SrGdGa3O7(SGGO) were grown successfully by the Czochralski method. The absorption, up-conversion, near-infrared and mid-infrared fluorescence spectra, as well as the fluorescence decay curves of Er:I-4(13/2) and I-4(11/2) levels in Er:SGGO crystal were measured at room temperature. As the concentration of Er3+ ions increase, the spectra of Er:SGGO crystals show weaker near-infrared emission and stronger mid-infrared emission. The lifetime of the I-4(13/2) state decreases by nearly 7times while the lifetime of the I-4(11/2) state decreases by only about 1.3 times in the Er:SGGO crystals. These results indicate that the heavily Er3+ doped SGGO crystals is beneficial to improve the 2.7 mu m laser.
