PbWO4 crystal for laser energy accumulation and transformation

详细

The picosecond interband two-photon laser excitation of PbWO₄ crystals at a temperature of 10 K leads to electronic excitation energy accumulation, which results in almost 100% induced absorption in the 450–750 nm spectral range. The relaxation time of this induced absorption exceeds 100 min. The electronic excitation energy accumulated in the PbWO₄ crystal at T = 10 K excites the intrinsic luminescence with a decay time longer than 45 min. The decay kinetics and the spectra of the intrinsic luminescence of the PbWO₄ crystal at a temperature of 10 K were measured under two-photon and single-photon excitation. The luminescence under two-photon and single-photon excitation revealed a difference in the structure of the spectra.
