The invention discloses a doped
yttrium lithium fluoride crystal and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of
crystal preparation, and the preparation method comprises the following steps: S1, weighing L F, YF3, ErF3, YbF3 and modified
polytetrafluoroethylene, mixing, and carrying out ball milling to obtain
raw material powder; s2, the
raw material powder is placed in a tubular resistance furnace, air is exhausted through high-purity
nitrogen, the temperature is 750-815 DEG C, HF gas is introduced, a reaction is conducted for 1-5 h, and
crystal powder is obtained; s3, the crystal powder is placed in a grinder to be ground into powder, then the powder is placed in a
platinum crucible to be compacted, the
crucible is sealed, the sealed
platinum crucible is placed in a crucible descent
crystal growth furnace, the crystal is grown through a crucible descent method, and the doped
yttrium lithium fluoride crystal is obtained.The obtained doped
yttrium lithium fluoride crystal is higher in 2.7-micron
fluorescence intensity, suitable for
laser devices and capable of being used for
laser devices. And high-efficiency mid-
infrared light laser of 2.7 microns is output.
