Abstract

The invention discloses a growth device, a growth furnace and a preparation method of yttrium lithium fluoride laser crystals, belonging to the field of laser crystals; the growth device comprises a crucible, a thermal insulation cylinder, a copper induction heating coil and a seed crystal rod, wherein the thermal insulation cylinder is arranged outside the crucible; the copper induction heating coil is arranged outside the thermal insulation cylinder; the seed crystal rod passes through the top of the thermal insulation cylinder and stretches into the crucible; a first circular hole having the diameter of 60-120mm and used for passing through the seed crystal rod is arranged in the middle at the top of the thermal insulation cylinder; the crucible is a platinum crucible or an iridium crucible; a nickel layer or a high-temperature resistant resin layer is formed on the outside surface of the copper induction heating coil in a spraying manner; and therefore, corrosion of fluoride gas can be avoided. The preparation method of the yttrium lithium fluoride laser crystals is disclosed on the basis of the growth furnace and the growth device of the yttrium lithium fluoride laser crystals. By adopting the induction heating manner, floats are salvaged in a manner of replacing seed crystals; and therefore, steady growth of high-quality yttrium lithium fluoride laser crystals is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of laser crystals, in particular to a growth device, a growth furnace and a preparation method of rare earth ion-doped yttrium lithium fluoride laser crystals. Background technique [0002] Lithium yttrium fluoride (LiYF 4 , referred to as YLF) has the advantages of low phonon energy, wide light transmission band, and negative thermo-optic coefficient. It is an excellent laser crystal matrix material. By making the rare earth ions in the trivalent state partially replace the Y on the yttrium lithium fluoride lattice 3+ Ions can form yttrium lithium fluoride (Re:YLF for short) laser crystals doped with rare earth ions. For example, Nd 3+ Ion substitution moiety Y 3+ After ions, the formed Nd:YLF crystal is a 1μm band laser crystal with excellent performance, and its dosage is second only to Nd:YAG and Nd:YVO 4 ; 3+ Ion and Tm 3+ Ion substitution moiety Y 3+ After ions, the formed Ho:YLF crystals and Tm:YLF crys...
