18 February 2010Laser cooling of a semiconductor load using a Yb:YLF optical refrigerator
We demonstrate cooling of a 2 micron thick GaAs/InGaP double-heterostructure to 165 K from ambient using
an all-solid-state optical refrigerator. Cooler is comprised of Yb3+-doped YLF crystal, pumped by 9 Watt near
E4-E5 Stark manifold transition.
