The structural formula of the crystal is Ybx: My: PbF2, and the growth method of the crystal includes the following steps: (1) the values of x and y are determined; (2) the raw material is weighed in proportion, is fully and evenly mixed and is pressed into blocks, the blocks are put into an iraurite, platinum or plumbago crucible, PbF2 crystal is adopted as a seed crystal, growth atmosphere is high purity argon or CF4 gas, and melt growth method is adopted. Experiments show that the crystal of the invention has large absorption and emission section, long fluorescence life time and high thermal conduction.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a laser crystal material, in particular to a ytterbium-base co-doped lead fluoride crystal and a preparation method thereof. The crystal can be applied to an all-solid-state LD pumped high repetition frequency, high power, tunable or ultra-short pulse laser . Background technique [0002] Laser technology has developed by leaps and bounds since the invention of the first laser, and has been widely used in industry, medical care, information science, biotechnology and military. The application of laser technology in the national economy has been widely used in medical, communication, printing, and electronic industries. With the increase of laser power, high-energy lasers can be used for cutting, drilling, welding and surface treatment of various materials. Since the laser can act on the workpiece at a long distance, it is suitable for environments that are harmful to human body, such as the dismantling of nuclear power plant ...
