Abstract:
SrF2 crystals doped with Pr3+ ions with concentrations corresponding to 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 wt % of PrF3 are studied by selective laser excitation. The absorption and luminescence spectra of Pr3 ions are measured at a temperature of 77 K. Three types of tetragonal centres (C, E, S) with the point symmetry group C4v and three types of cluster centres (K1, K2, K3) are found. Energy level diagrams of the 3H4, 3P1 and 3P2 terms of Pr3+ ions in SrF2 crystals are plotted for the tetragonal (C) and cluster optical centres. The lifetimes of the tetragonal C centre [τ(300 K)∼112 μs, τ(77K)∼108 μs] and cluster centres K1 (∼43 μs), K2 (∼7 μs) and K3 (∼48 μs) are measured at 77 K for the first time.
