Abstract

We report the first observation of anti-Stokes laser-induced cooling in the Er{sup 3+} ratio KPb{sub 2}Cl{sub 5} crystal and in the Er{sup 3+} ratio CNBZn (CdF{sub 2}-CdCl{sub 2}-NaF-BaF{sub 2}-BaCl{sub 2}-ZnF{sub 2}) glass. The internal cooling efficiencies have been calculated by using photothermal deflection spectroscopy. Thermal scans acquired with an infrared thermal camera proved the bulk cooling capability of the studied samples. The implications of these results are discussed.

Alternative technique for laser cooling with superradiance

Journal Article Nemova, Galina; Kashyap, Raman - Physical Review. A

We present a theoretical scheme for laser cooling of rare-earth-doped solids with optical superradiance (SR), which is the coherent, sharply directed spontaneous emission of photons by a system of laser-excited rare-earth ions in the solid-state host (glass or crystal). We consider an Yb{sup +}-doped ZnF{sub 4}-BaF{sub 2}-LaF{sub 3}-AlF{sub 3}-NaF (ZBLAN) sample pumped at a wavelength 1015 nm, with a rectangular pulsed source with a power of {approx}433 W and a duration of 10 ns. The intensity of the SR is proportional to the square of the number of excited ions. This unique feature of SR permits an increase in themore »« less

Experimental demonstration of intracavity solid-state laser cooling of Yb{sup 3+}:ZrF{sub 4}-BaF{sub 2}-LaF{sub 3}-AlF{sub 3}-NaF glass

Journal Article Heeg, B; Stone, M; Khizhnyak, A; ... - Physical Review. A

We report an approach to bulk optical cooling of solid-state materials by placing the cooling medium inside a laser cavity. The laser system is a diode-pumped Yb{sup 3+}:KY(WO{sub 4}){sub 2} (KYW) laser, while the cooling medium is an uncoated sample of 2%-doped Yb{sup 3+}:ZrF{sub 4}-BaF{sub 2}-LaF{sub 3}-AlF{sub 3}-NaF (ZBLAN) glass. A typical drop of 6 K from ambient temperature was obtained from a noncontact temperature measurement based on the anti-Stokes luminescence profile, using diode pump power at the gain medium of 6 W, a laser wavelength of 1027 nm, and an absorbed power of 1.25 W.

Effect of ytterbium on erbium anti-stokes luminescence in the 1. 5-. mu. m radiation range

Journal Article Kozhan, T; Khomenko, V; Kvznetsova, V; ... - J. Appl. Spectrosc. (Engl. Transl.); (United States)

This paper describes the effect of ytterbium on the luminescence of yttrium oxychloride with erbium ions at different temperatures. The intensity of the anti-Stokes luminescence was estimated from the integrated emission spectra of erbium. The spectra were recorded with a luminescence apparatus consisting of a grating monochromator with a reciprocal dispersion of 8 A.mm/sup -1/ and an electrometric voltmeter. The authors conclude that over the whole temperature range, Yb/sup 3 +/ enhances the red anti-Stokes luminescence of erbium and has a weak quenching effect on the green component. Both enhancement and quenching effects can be described by a model basedmore »« less
Dispersive Fourier transformation for megahertz detection of coherent stokes and anti-stokes Raman spectra

Journal Article Bohlin, Alexis; Patterson, Brian; Kliewer, Christopher - Optics Communications

In many fields of study, from coherent Raman microscopy on living cells to time-resolved coherent Raman spectroscopy of gas-phase turbulence and combustion reaction dynamics, the need for the capability to time-resolve fast dynamical and nonrepetitive processes has led to the continued development of high-speed coherent Raman methods and new high-repetition rate laser sources, such as pulse-burst laser systems. However, much less emphasis has been placed on our ability to detect shot to shot coherent Raman spectra at equivalently high scan rates, across the kilohertz to megahertz regime. This is beyond the capability of modern scientific charge coupled device (CCD) cameras,more »« less
