Abstract

The hydrothermal growth, doping, and low temperature spectral characterization of Yb doped Lu₂O₃ was investigated. The absorption of the lutetia-based sesquioxide laser material Yb:Lu₂O₃ at temperatures of 80, 150, 200, 250, and 298 K, in the wavelength range of 850-1100 nm are reported. Data for both single crystal and ceramic Yb:Lu₂O₃ were obtained. The resulting absorption cross-section data will enable the further evaluation of Yb:Lu₂O₃ as a very promising high power cryogenic laser material.
