摘要: Highly transparent Yb, Ho doped (YLa)2O3 ceramic was fabricated by conventional ceramic processing with nanopowders. The absorption and emission spectra of the ceramic were investigated. The energy transfer mechanism between Yb3+ and Ho3+ was also discussed. The strong emission band around 2 μm indicated that the Yb-Ho: (Y0.90La0.10)2O3 transparent ceramic is a promising gain medium for the generation of 2 μm laser emissions. The laser operation of Yb-Ho co-doped (YLa)2O3 ceramic at 2.1 μm is first reported.
