Er3+掺杂的晶体能够产生2.7~3.0 μm波段中红外激光,在激光医疗、光通讯、环境探测和光电对抗等领域具有重要的应用。基于本课题组近年来开展的Er3+激活中红外激光晶体的相关工作,本文综述了共掺稀土离子对Er3+激活晶体光谱性能的影响:包括敏化离子Cr3+、Yb3+等的敏化作用增强了Er3+的特征吸收峰;退激活离子Pr3+、Ho3+等的退激活效应抑制了自终态瓶颈效应;以及共掺Nd3+所起的敏化和退激活双重作用,并对中红外激光的研究趋势和前景进行了展望。
The Er3+-doped crystals can produce 2.7~3.0 μm mid-infrared(MIR) lasers, which have attracted much attention for their numerous applications in laser medical surgery, optical communication, enviromental detector and electro-optical countermeasure, etc. Based on the past few years' work on the study of Er3+ activated crystals by our team, we review the effect of co-dopant rare-earth ions on the spectroscopic properties of Er3+ activated MIR laser crystals, including the sensitizing ions Cr3+, Yb3+, etc. which can enhance the intensity of characteristic absorption peaks of Er3+; the deactivating ions Ho3+, Pr3+, etc. which can inhibit the self-termination bottleneck effects, furthermore, the co-dopant Nd3+ ion can play a dual role at the same time. In the end, the expectations on the study of MIR lasers are presented.
