The emission intensity at 1.8 ktm first increases with increasing Tm3+ concentration, and reaches a maximum value when the concentration of Tm3+ is about 1.28 mol%, then it decreases rapidly as the concentration of Tm3+ further increases to 3.49 mol%. The emission lifetime at 1.8 p.m also shows a similar tendency to the emission intensity. The maximum lifetime of 1.8 μm is measured to be 17.68 ms for the sample doped with Tm3+ of 1.28 mol%. The emission cross section of 3F4 level is calculated. The maximum reaches 3.76 × 10 -21 cm2 at 1909 nm. The cross relaxation (3H6, 3H4 →3 F4, 3F4) between Tm3+ ions and the concentration quenching effect are mainly attributed to the change of emission with Tm3+ concentration. The largest quantum efficiency between Tm3+ ions is estimated to be ,-147% from the measured lifetime and calculated radiative lifetime. All the results suggest that the Tm3+/LiYF4 single crystal may have potential applications in 2 μm mid-infrared lasers.展开更多

[ Method ] M. aeruginosa as material, fluorescence intensity at its best excitation and emission wavelengths as measured indicator, influence of the HgCI2 at different mass concentrations on fluorescence intensity of the M. aeruginosa was discussed initially. [ Result] HgCI2 at different mass concentrations had different influences on M. aeruginosa. HgCI2 at low concentration (0.002 -0.004 mg/L)could promote photosynthesis of the M. aeruginosa. It showed as fluorescence value of the algae liquid becoming smaller. 0.010 -0.400 mg/L of HgCI2 inhibited photosynthesis of the M. aeruginosa. It showed as fluorescence value of the algae liquid becoming bigger. Moreover, inhibition effect increased as HgCI2 concentration rose, showing a positive correlation between HgCI2 concentration and toxicity ( R 2 = 0.963 5 ). [ Conclusion ] The research provided new theoretical basis for quickly measuring water toxicity.展开更多

A straight ridge and three different tapered waveguide structures with varying flare angles are fabricated to optimize the output power and spatial-mode performance. The best devices exhibit single-spatial-mode operation with room-temperature output power up to 350?mW in continuous-wave mode at an emission wavelength around 2.0?μm with a very small far-field lateral divergence angle, which is beyond state of the art in terms of single-spatial-mode output power.展开更多

The luminescent performances of the crystals are investigated through emission spectra, infrared transmittance spectrum, emission cross section, and decay curves under excitation by 980 nm. Compared with the Ho3+ single-doped LiYF4 crystal, the Ho3+/yb3+ co-doped tiYf4 single crystal has an obviously enhanced emission band from 1850 nm to 2150 nm observed when excited by a 980-nm diode laser. The energy transfer from Yb3+ to Ho3+ and the optimum fluorescence emission around 2.0 p-m of Ho3+ ions are investigated. The maximum emission cross section of the above sample at 2.0 p.m is calculated to be 1.08 × 10-20 cm2 for the LiYF4 single crystal of 1-mol% Ho3+ and 6-mo1% Yb3+ according to the measured absorption spectrum. The high energy transfer efficiency of 88.9% from Yb3+ to Ho3+ ion in the sample co-doped by Ho3+ (1 mol%) and Yb3+ (8 tool%) demonstrates that the Yb3+ ions can efficiently sensitize the Ho3+ ions.展开更多
