Energy transfer amongNd3+ions in garnet crystals

Authors:

Abstract
Laser-excited, time-resolved site-selection spectroscopy techniques were used to investigate energy transfer between Nd3+ ions in Y3 Al5 O12 and Y3 Ga5 O12 crystals. The results are consistent with a multistep diffusion type of energy transfer with the mechanisms for diffusion and trapping both involving resonant two-phonon-assisted processes.
