Experimental determination of the luminescent quantum efficiency of the green emission of Er 3+ ions in Lithium Niobate

In this work, the luminescent quantum efficiency of the green emission of Er 3+ ions in Lithium Niobate (LiNbO 3) is experimentally obtained ( Φ=0.20±0.01) by using a method based on the simultaneous and multiwavelength measurement of photoacoustic and luminescent signals after pulsed laser excitati...

Summary:In this work, the luminescent quantum efficiency of the green emission of Er 3+ ions in Lithium Niobate (LiNbO 3) is experimentally obtained ( Φ=0.20±0.01) by using a method based on the simultaneous and multiwavelength measurement of photoacoustic and luminescent signals after pulsed laser excitation. The results are compared with the predictions after Judd-Ofelt analysis and lifetime measurements.
