Problems solved by technology

The traditional pulling method growth process grows Nd 3+ : There are several deficiencies in YAG crystals: 1. Because the segregation coefficient of neodymium ions in YAG is too small, only less than 0.2, as the crystal grows gradually, the concentration of neodymium ions in the crystal will become higher and higher, making the crystal The difference between the neodymium ions at the head and tail is also getting bigger and bigger
2. The pulling method growth p

Abstract

The invention discloses a new technique for growing yttrium aluminium garnet (YAG) crystals and a device thereof. The technique uses an intermediate frequency induction heating Bridgman-Stockbarge crystal growth method, and employs a new technique for synchronously and continuously feeding a high-temperature melt with gradual crystal growth in the growth procedure. The new technique perfectly solves the problems that a large crucible is used for growing small crystals as the concentration distribution of doped ions in grown crystals is uneven caused by small segregation coefficient of the doped ions when YAG high-temperature melt is crystallized and Nd:YAG is grown by a pulling method. The provided technique can help grow doped YAG crystals with large size, higher crystal bar cutting utilization rate, even concentration distribution of doped ions and good optical homogeneity. The technique satisfies the constant new requirements of the solid laser technical field for the YAG crystals.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of crystal research, in particular to a new technology and equipment for growing yttrium aluminum garnet crystals. Background technique [0002] Incorporation of appropriate rare earth element ions such as Nd 3+ , Yb 3+ , Er 3+ , Pr 4+ or Cr 4+ The yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG for short) single crystal has excellent laser physical properties, and it is widely used in the field of solid-state laser technology, such as laser range finder, laser radar, various laser medical equipment, laser marking Machines, laser cutting machines, laser welding machines and other equipment. Among them, especially neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd 3+ :YAG) crystals are the most widely used and common. [0003] Currently, Nd 3+ :YAG crystal is mainly grown by Czochralski technique. Usually medium-frequency induction heating is used for growth in an iridium (Ir) crucible, and the growth cycle is about 20-30 days. But wi...
