Abstract:Laser cooling of solid material has become a new developing research area in recent years. Tm3+ doped ZrF4-BaF2-LaF3-AlF3-NaF-PbF2 glass is one of the hot materials in this field. Compared with Yb3+, Tm3+ has better cooling potential. Up to date, one of the main factors restricting the cooling effect is fluorescent reabsorption. In this paper, firstly, using several spectral parameters of Tm3+, the reabsorption effect is calculated by stochastic model which is a semianalytical approach to this problem. The ave… Show more
