Abstract
Three NaGd(WO4)2 single crystals were grown by the Czochralski method using charges of different chemical purity. The impurity compositions of the grown crystals were analyzed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. The optical absorption spectra of the crystals were measured, and the effect of uncontrollable impurities on their optical properties and color was analyzed. The green color encountered in NaGd(WO4)2 crystals in some cases was shown to be due to the uncontrollable impurities of d elements, among which the chromium impurity had the most significant effect.
