Abstract

Absorption and emission spectra as well as ²F _5/2(Yb³⁺) and ³H₄,³F ₄(Tm³⁺) excited state relaxation of Yb:Tm-doped potassium yttrium tungstate (KY(WO₄)₂) crystal were measured. The intensities of the electronic transitions were analyzed from the point of view of further application of this crystal for diode pumped solid-state lasers. The processes of energy transfer between Yb and Tm ions under 980-nm excitation in this medium are discussed.
