Abstract

The spectroscopic properties of F³⁺ ions in tetrahedral sites in garnets, together with the good packing of these sites around the dodecahedral position occupied by rare-earth ions, favor a very efficient energy transfer from Fe³⁺ to TM³⁺. Since Fe³⁺ does not introduce additional losses, this ion is a potential sensitizer for Tm³⁺ laser emission.
