摘要
The spectroscopic study of Nd3+ in β-Nd3+:LaSc3(BO3)4 crystal has been performed. Based on Judd–Ofelt theory, the spectral parameters were obtained: the parameters of line strengths Ωλ are Ω2=2.85×10−20 cm2, Ω4=3.69×10−20 cm2, Ω6=4.73×10−20 cm2, the radiative lifetime is 226 μs, thus, the quantum efficiency is 49.4%, and the fluorescence branch ratios were calculated: β1=0.397, β2=0.499, β3=0.099.
