文摘

Nd³⁺:Gd_1−xLa_xCa₄O(BO₃)₃ crystals (where x = 0.16 and 0.33) have been grown successfully by the Czochralski method. The grown Nd³⁺:Gd_1−xLa_xCa₄O(BO₃)₃ crystals were characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermal analysis, and spectral analysis. The investigation shows that when the La³⁺ were partly substituted for the Gd³⁺ in Nd³⁺:GdCOB crystals to form Nd³⁺:Gd_1−xLa_xCa₄O(BO₃)₃ crystals, the La³⁺ ion did not affect the basic physical properties of the crystals, but improved the thermal and spectroscopic properties of the crystals, which is helpful to improve the laser performance of Nd³⁺:GdCOB crystals.
