Description

In order to investigate the proposed mechanism involving iron to neodymium non-radiative energy transfer in iron, neodymium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet (YAG) laser material, the photoluminescence excitation spectra of undoped YAG, 0.1% Fe:YAG, and 1% Fe:YAG are measured and discussed. Results point to a complex defect-to-iron ion-to-neodymium ion transfer in Fe,Nd:YAG enhancing the neodymium emission
