Problems solved by technology

[0004] The single-doped Dy pumped by GaN blue light LD has been reported so far 3+ Laser crystals have fewer crystals that obtain yellow laser output, mainly Dy:YAG, because Dy 3+ Particles with lower stimulated emission cross-sections and lower laser energy levels cannot relax rapidly to the ground state, resulting in high laser threshold
Furthermore, the vast majority of Dy 3+ Doped yellow laser crystals have low thermal conductivity and are unbearable due to Dy 3+ Low absorption and emission cross sections necessitate high pump power waste heat issues

Abstract

The invention discloses a dysprosium-terbium co-doped scandium-containing garnet laser crystal, a preparation method thereof and an application of LD pumping of the crystal to realize yellow laser output. The chemical expression of the crystal is Dy<x>Tb<y>A<3-x-y>Sc2B3O12. A Dy<x>Tb<y>A<3-x-y>Sc2B3O12 polycrystalline raw material is prepared by adopting a solid phase method or a liquid phase method, and then the Dy<x>Tb<y>A<3-x-y>Sc2B3O12 single crystal is grown by adopting a melt method, the GaN LD is used as a pump light source, and the Dy<x>Tb<y>A<3-x-y>Sc2B3O12 crystal is pumped to realize yellow laser output. Dysprosium and terbium are used as activating ions, and through energy resonance transfer between Dy<3+> and Tb<3+>, particles on a lower energy level <6>H<13/2> of Dy<3+> laser are transferred to a <7>F4 energy level of Tb<3+> ions, so that population inversion of Dy<3+> is easier to realize, and a yellow laser threshold value is reduced; the scandium-containing garnet laser crystal is used as a host crystal, so that Dy<3+> is easy to realize population inversion, and the crystal has high thermal conductivity and can bear the waste heat problem caused by high pumping power required by relatively low absorption and emission cross section of Dy<3+>.
