Stimulated emission and excited-state absorption at room temperature on the 550 nm-laser transition in Er3+ doped YAlO3

摘要

A pump- and probe-beam technique is used for measuring time-resolved and cw-pumped excited-state absorption (ESA) and stimulated-emission (SE) spectra of Er3+:YAlO3 with high resolution. In combination with absorption and fluorescence spectra, detailed information on the wavelengths and cross-sections of ESA and SE at the 550 nm laser transition is provided.
