Реферат: | eng: Single crystals of Pr3+-doped gamma-BiB3O6 of optical quality were grown. Band gap is 4.16 eV at 80 K, which differs only Slightly from that for undoped samples. Pr concentration is 2 x 10(20) cm(-3) and the dopant is distributed uniformly along the crystal. Absorption cross-section for Pr3+ was estimated to be similar to 1 x 10(-2) cm(2). At X-ray and UV, band-to-band excitation the Pr:gamma-BiB3O6 crystals demonstrate an intense emission in the 450 nm broad band, which is related mainly to recombination of self-trapped excitons (STE). A part of energy is transferred radiatively to Pr3+ ions. The STE emission quenches as temperature increases to 250 K with simultaneous decrease of the decay time from 11 us to 17 ns. Intensity and decay time of the Pr3+ intracenter luminescence with tau similar to 50 mu s at 450 nm excitation do not depend on temperature. Intensity of thermoluminescence in the 150-400 K range quenches 2 orders at Pr doping, and parameters of the traps were estimated. As a result of relatively narrow band gap in gamma-BiB3O6:Pr3+, there is no cascade luminescence typical of many wide-band-gap matrices. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
