Abstract

The possibilities of LiNbO3-Ho3+ crystals for optical cooling based on the anti-Stokes luminescence in the wavelength range 2000-2200 nm are investigated. The efficiency and cooling temperature under the continuous wave (CW) excitation at the wavelengths 2035-2071 nm by ~100 W power are estimated. It is shown that under the CW excitation at 2035 nm wavelength the maximum cooling temperature is equal to 2.5 K, and at 2071 nm wavelength is equal to 10.9 K.
