Abstract

The invention discloses a thulium-erbium-dysprosium triple-doped lead fluoride intermediate infrared laser crystal, a preparation method and application. In the crystal, erbium ions are used as activeions to realize fluorescence emission of 2.6-2.9 microns, corresponding to energy level transition of erbium ions from 4I11/2 to 4I13/2, and dysprosium ions are used as deactivation ions of erbium ions, on the one hand, dysprosium ions enable the service life of the lower laser energy level (4I13/2) of erbium ions to be shortened, and on the other hand, dysprosium ion 6H13/2-to-6H15/2 particle number inversion and intermediate infrared laser output are achieved; thulium ions have dual effects and serve as sensitizing ions of erbium ions and dysprosium ions or deactivating ions of erbium ions.The substrate material is a lead fluoride crystal, the physical and chemical properties and the optical properties are good, phonon energy is low, continuous, broadband tunable and ultra-short pulseintermediate infrared laser output can be achieved in a 3-micron waveband, and the thulium-erbium-dysprosium triple-doped lead fluoride intermediate infrared laser crystal has wide application prospects in the fields of military national defense, laser medical treatment and scientific research.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of infrared laser materials and devices, in particular to a mid-infrared laser crystal doped with thulium-erbium-dysprosium tri-doped lead fluoride, a preparation method and an application. Background technique [0002] Because the mid-infrared ~ 3 micron band is located in the strong absorption peak of water, the absorption coefficient of water is high, which can reduce the damage of laser emission to human tissues, and can be widely used in laser medical fields such as ophthalmology and dentistry. At the same time, because the laser in this band has strong atmospheric penetration ability and small molecular scattering, it is located in the molecular fingerprint area, and can be widely used in remote sensing detection, air pollution monitoring, space optical communication, scientific research and other fields. [0003] At present, the rare earth ions that can achieve mid-infrared emission in the ~3 micron b...
