Abstract
â¢Tm3+ optical centers fluorescence spectra at 77K for 3F4-3H6 transition are obtained.â¢Tm3+ optical centers lifetimes at 77K for 3F4-3H6 transition are measured.â¢Tm3+ long-lifetime optical center is suggested to have tetragonal local symmetry.
Individual low temperature (77Â K) fluorescence spectra of tetragonal (C4v), clustered, and long-lifetime optical centers of Tm3+ ions at the 3F4-3H6 transition are recorded and the lifetimes of these centers are measured. Analysis of the number and positions of the fluorescence lines of the long-lifetime optical center allows to suggest that it has tetragonal (C4v) local symmetry.
