Stress-induced birefringence for the Er3+: Y2O3 ceramic system
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract The stress-induced birefringence for erbium doped yttria ceramics were measured at room temperature. An ellipsometer was used to measure the retardation effect of static loading on a set of ceramic equilateral prisms and the stress-optic co-efficients were obtained. The samples measured were equilateral prisms of pure Y2O3, (Er0.1Y0.9)2O3 and (Er0.2Y0.8)2O3. The stress-optic co-efficients were found to be in the range 1.6 ↔ 2.5 × 10−5 [nm/cm]/Pa showing no dependence on erbium concentration.
