Micromechanical properties of Dy3+ ion-doped (Lu Y1-)3Al5O12 (x = 0, 1/3, 1/2) single crystals by indentation and scratch tests

Dy3+ and Tb3+ codoped mixed garnet crystals with a high-disorder structure for promising efficient InGaN laser-diode pumped yellow lasers

“…The high-disorder structure of mixed garnet crystals offers an advantage of spectrum inhomogeneous broadening of Dy 3+ , thereby improving the absorption efficiency. 25 Furthermore, the induced energy resonant transfer between Dy 3+ and Tb 3+ can further enhance the yellow emission of Dy 3+ . Hence, we conducted a systematic evaluation to assess the potential of Dy 3+ and Tb 3+ codoped mixed garnet crystals as yellow laser materials.…”
