Abstract The Optical properties and spectral data of erbium-doped Lithium Niobate crystals,including absorption spectrum, emission spectrum, luminescence lifetime and up-conversion effects are reported in this paper. The energy level scheme, Stark splitting under crystal field and up-conversion mechanism are discussed in detail. The possible applications of this material in waveguide optics and opto-electronics are also prospected.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
