Temperature-dependent fluorescence decay and energy transfer in Nd/Cr:YAG ceramics
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract This work investigates the energy-transfer processes from Cr3+ to Nd3+ in yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) ceramics by comparing the fluorescence decay of Cr3+ for Nd/Cr:YAG with that of Cr:YAG from 293 to 473 K. The experimentally determined fluorescence decay of Nd3+ excited through Cr3+ is consistent with the theoretical predictions when energy-transfer processes are taken into account by including in the rate equations the dipole-dipole interaction and energy transfer via excitation-energy migration. Furthermore, the results presented herein clarify that the efficiency of energy transfer from Cr3+ to Nd3+ increases slightly with increasing temperature.
