Abstract
Luminescence properties of the Cr3+-doped LiGaW2O8 crystals are investigated by laser excitation spectroscopy. The powder samples for various Cr3+ concentration were prepared by high-temperature solid state reaction. The temperature behaviors of the emission intensity and the decay time of the self-activated LiGaW2O8 host are discussed. The emission spectra and decay times of LiGa1-xW2O8:xCr3+ are measured under UV excitation in the temperature range 10–300 K. The luminescence quenching of LiGaW2O8:Cr3+ as functions of temperature and Cr3+-concentration is explained by structural and spectral characteristics.
