Abstract The Er 3+: YPO 4 crystals co-doped with different concentrations of Yb 3+(7.5 at.%
and 11.5 at.%) were successfully grown by high-temperature solution method with Pb 2 P 2 …

Laser lighting devices, comprising an ultraviolet (UV) laser chip and a phosphor material,
have emerged as a highly efficient approach for generating high-brightness light sources …

The paper is focused on an influence of vanadium ions on the up-conversion processes in
nanosized YV x P 1-x O4 solid state solution. As a consequence, two series of YV x P 1-x O4 …

In this work, the effects of M 5+ ions on the optical properties and temperature sensing
characteristics of YMO 4: Er 3+(M= Nb, Ta, V, P) phosphors were considered in detail. YMO …

Abstract Undoped and Nd (0.2, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0, 1.2 and 1.6 at%)-doped GdVO 4 single crystals
have been grown by optical floating zone technique. XRD analysis reveals small lattice …

Abstract Cr co-doped (0.5, 1.0, 1.2 and 1.5 at.%) Nd (0.5 at.%): GdVO 4 single crystals, used
as laser gain medium, were grown by the optical floating zone technique to investigate the …

A centimeter-sized bulk Er: Yb: YPO 4 crystal was successfully grown by the top-seed flux
method, which overcomes the disadvantage of the commonly used spontaneously …

GdVO 4 single crystals doped with different concentration of Nd (0.6, 0.8, 1.0 and 1.2 at.%)
were grown by optical floating zone method. The absorption coefficient measured for two …

Abstract Er 3+/Yb 3+/Ce 3+ tir-doped YPO 4 crystals were successfully synthesized by high
temperature solution method with Pb 2 P 2 O 7 as flux. The growth, structures and spectral …

Abstract Single crystals of Cr (0.7, 1.0, 1.4 and 2.0 at%) and Nd (0.7 at%) co-doped yttrium
vanadate (YVO 4) were grown by optical floating zone method.[100]-oriented elements were …
