Description

Chromium-doped molybdic acid aluminum rubidium tunable laser crystal
Technical field
The invention belongs to technical field of optoelectronic functional materials.Especially relate to a kind of laser crystal material as the operation material in the tunable solid laser.
Background technology
So-called tunable laser is meant a kind of like this effect: excited the active ions that mix in the solid matrix by laser or pumping lamp; To produce laser output, adopt methods such as prism tuning method, F-P etalon tuning method, grating tuning method, color filter tuning method and distributed feed-back system tuning method can obtain tunable laser output.
People such as L.F.Johnson adopted flash lamp pumping in 1963, were mixing Ni 2+MgF 2Realized first solid adjustable laser operation (L.F.Johnson R.E.Dietz&H.J.Guggenheim, J.Phys.Rev.Lett., 11 (1963) 318) in the crystal.A lot of tunable laser crystals have appearred subsequently, like Ti 3+: Al 2O 3, Cr 3+: Mg 2SiO 4, Cr 3+: LiSrAlF 6, Cr 3+: BeAl 2O 4Deng, but because a variety of causes, many tunable laser crystals are only limited to makes laboratory tool, can't push commercial Application to.The tunable laser crystal maximum, that got into application of research at present is Cr 3+: BeAl 2O 4(alexandrite crystal), Ti 3+: Al 2O 3(titanium-doped sapphire) and Cr 3+: Li CaAlF 6, Cr 3+: LiSrAlF 6, but the defective that they also all exist some to be difficult to avoid makes their range of application be restricted.
Cr 3+: BeAl 2O 4The major defect of (alexandrite crystal) crystal is: tuning range is between 700~800nm, and emission cross section is little by (6 * 10 -21Cm 2), required pumping threshold is high, but also has shortcomings such as high damage ratio and high thermal lensing effect, in addition because the BeO severe toxicity also brings very big difficulty to growth.
Ti 3+: Al 2O 3The major defect of crystal is: Ti in this crystal 3+-Ti 4+The appearance of ion pair; Make at laser output wave band; Be that absorbing appears near infrared band, influenced its laser activity, and because its upper laser level life-span short (having only 3.2 μ s); Need also further limit its application with short-pulse laser, Q switching laser, continuous wave laser or the flash lamp pumping that produces special short pulse.
Cr 3+: LiCaAlF 6, Cr 3+: LiSrAlF 6Plurality of advantages such as although crystal has the tuning range broad, emission cross section is big, and required pumping threshold is low.But also exist problems such as absorption coefficient is little, the lasing efficiency of LD pumping is low.All actively seeking the tunable laser crystal material that tuning band is wideer, can directly use photoflash lamp and LD pumping both at home and abroad at present.
Summary of the invention
The object of the invention just is to develop a kind of new tunable laser crystal, can directly use photoflash lamp and the tunable laser crystal material LD pumping, broad tuning.
RbAl (MoO 4) 2Belong to trigonal system, have P3ml (D 3d 3) the space group structure, be a kind of good laser crystal host material, chromium ion is can replace aluminum ions lattice position easily as dopant ion.Its doping content is between 0.2at%~5at%.Fluorescence lifetime (τ) is 17~30 μ s, and its fluorescence lifetime is the function of chromium ion concentration, can mix the chromium ion of variable concentrations according to different needs.Experimental result shows that its tunable range between 710~1000nm, can be used as tunable laser crystal.
Chromium-doped molybdic acid aluminum rubidium laser crystal and preparation method thereof: we have found growth Cr through experiment 3+: RbAl (MoO 4) 2The comparatively ideal flux of crystal: Rb 2Mo 3O 10, and best growth conditions, and grown high-quality crystal Cr 3+: RbAl (MoO 4) 2(seeing embodiment 1 and 2).
Concrete chemical equation is following:
Rb 2CO 3+Al 2O 3+4MoO 3=2RbAl(MoO 4) 2+CO 2
