Abstract

Yb³⁺ and M⁺ monovalent alkali ions (M⁺ = Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺)-co-doped CaF₂ cubic laser crystals were grown by the micro-pulling-down method (μ-PD) under CF₄ atmosphere. Structural and spectroscopic characterizations of Yb³⁺ in substitution of Ca²⁺ (absorption, emission and decay curves) were carried out to study the effect of M⁺ ions as charge compensators.
