摘要：
Codoping with Zr4+ ions enhances the 1.54 mu m emission in Yb/Er: LiNbO3 crystal by about three times. Optical damage resistant Zr4+ ion increases the maximum phonon energy of Er: LiNbO3 host, which is favorable for the nonradiative relaxation from I-4(11/2) to I-4(13/2) state (Er). The time decay spectra show that the incorporation of Zr4+ ions leads to a shortening lifetime of I-4(11/2) state (Er), increasing the nonradiative relaxation rate of I-4(11/2) -> I-4(13/2) (Er) in Yb/Er: LiNbO3. The 1.54 mu m emission enhancement is important to telecommunication application. (C) 2012 Optical Society of America
