Abstract

With the rapid development of high-power laser, it is urgent to explore magneto-optical crystals suitable for high power Faraday isolators. Hence, high quality Gd3+ doped Tb3Al3Ga2O12 (Gd: TAGG) crystals are grown by the Czochralski method. X-ray diffraction proves its phase purity. Segregation coefficients for Gd3+ in Gd: TAGG crystals are measured to be about 0.97, which is favorable for the growth of large-size crystals. Laue back-reflection measurement and transmittance spectra suggest that the crystals have excellent optical properties and crystallinity. The Verdet constants of Gd: TAGG crystals are about 1.15-1.22 times that of Tb3Ga5O12.
