Abstract
Monoclinic KY(WO4)2:Pr3+, Tm3+:KY(WO4)2:Er3+, Yb3+ single crystals are grown by low-gradient Czochralski technique. Stimulated emission at 1.0223μm wavelength in the new lasing 1D2→3F3 channel of Pr3+ ions in KY(WO4)2 at room temperature under Xe-flashlamp pumping is excited. Full sets of Stark-level energies for Pr3+ ions in KY(WO4)2 and KGd(WO4)2 crystals at 77 K are determined. 4f2-4f2 intensity-transitions for the KY(WO4)2:Pr3+ are analyzed preliminarily. All observed at present and earlier one-micron Pr3+-ion, induced transitions in the 1D2→3F3 and 1D2→3F4 channels are identified. In yttrium and gadolinium sensitized-tungstates a two-micron (3H4→3H6) low-threshold generation of Tm3+ ions at cryogenic temperatures is achieved.
