Embodiment 1

[0022] Example 1: Growth of high Er-doped 3+ Ion concentration of Nd,Er:GSGG crystals

[0023] Highly doped Er3+ Ionic concentrations of Nd, Er: GSGG crystals refer to Er 3+ The doping concentration of ions is between 30-50at%, Nd 3+ The concentration is between 0.5-10at%. For example Er 3+ Concentration is 35at%, Nd 3+ The concentration is 1at%. Polycrystalline raw materials prepared by solid-phase method or liquid-phase method can grow highly Er-doped 3+ Nd,Er:GSGG single crystal.

[0024] The solid phase method is according to the following chemical reaction formula:

[0025] 3xNd 2 o 3 +3yEr 2 o 3 +3(1-x-y)Gd 2 o 3 +2Sc 2 o 3 +3Ga 2 o 3 =2Nd 3x Er 3y Gd (3-3x-3y) sc 2 Ga 3 o 12 , wherein x=0.5-10at%, y=30-50at%, the polycrystalline raw material of the crystal is obtained by a solid-state reaction method;

Embodiment 2

[0026] Example 2: An experimental device for realizing Nd, Er: GSGG crystal 2.7-2.8 μm band laser output

[0027] Using 808nm semiconductor laser to pump Nd, Er:GSGG(Nd 3+ The doping concentration is 1at%, Er 3+ Doping concentration of 35at%) crystal components. The experimental device is attached figure 1 . In the figure, 1 is the 808nm semiconductor laser; 2 is the focusing lens; 3 is the dielectric mirror with total reflection for 2.7-2.8μm band and full transmission for 808nm; 4 is Nd, Er: GSGG crystal element; 5 is for the 2.7-2.8μm band Partial transmission, dielectric mirror for total reflection of 808nm; 6 laser energy meters. Since the wavelength around 2.7-2.8 μm is in the strong absorption band of water, in this laser experimental device, it is also necessary to exclude water vapor in the resonant cavity or shorten the resonant cavity to reduce the adverse effect of water vapor on laser oscillation.

Abstract

The invention belongs to an Nd<3+> sensitized radiation-resistant laser crystal which is characterized in that the chemical expression of the crystal is Nd<3+>,Er<3+>: Gd3Sc2Ga3O12 (abbreviated as Nd, Er:GSGG, wherein, the doping concentration of the Er<3+> is higher than 30at%), both the Nd<3+> and the Er<3+> are Gd<3+> which replaces the central position of a dodecahedron in the crystal, and the Nd<3+> is taken as sensitized ions which transfer the absorbed energy to the Er<3+> ions in the crystal to enhance the laser pumping efficiency of the Nd,Er:GSGG near 2.7-2.8mum. The laser of the wave band has important application to the fields such as biomedical treatment, optical parametric oscillation, electro-optical countermeasures and the like. As the Nd, Er:GSGG laser crystal has the capacity of resisting radiation of high-intensity gamma rays and other rays, the Nd<3+> sensitized radiation-resistant laser crystal can also meet the requirements of radiation environment and space environment application besides meeting the requirements of ground application.
