LUMINESCENCE LIFETIME MEASUREMENTS OF YB3+ IONS IN LI2ZN2(MOO4)3 CRYSTAL BY USING METHOD ELIMINATING REABSORPTION EFFECT
Abstract
The experimental setup for luminescence decay time measurements of rear-earth ions in condensed matters (crystals, glasses and solutions) has been developed. Fluorescence decay time of Yb3+ ions in Yb3+:Li2Zn2(MoO4)3 crystal was measured in the spectral range near 1 µm by using special method eliminating effects of reabsorption.
