| ABSTRACT |
|
Yb:$YCa_4O(BO_3)_3$ (Yb:YCOB) single crystal, in which the concentration of $Yb^{3+}$ ion 20 at%, was grown by the Czocharalski method using an iridium crucible under N2 atmosphere. The optimum growth parameters to get a high quality of single crystals were found to be 1.5∼2 mm/h of pulling rate and 10∼20 rpm of rotation rate. According to the results of spectroscopic properties, absorption edge of Yb:YCOB was 236 nm. Two strong absorption line due to $Yb^{3+}$ ions were observed at 900 and 975 nm. Thermal expansion coefficients of Yb:YCOB crystal along a, b and c crystallographic axes from 320 to 650 K were 12.1${times}10^{-6}$/K, 5.9${times}10^{-6}$/K, 12.9${times}10^{-6}$/K, respectively. Specific heat was 0.162 $cal/g{cdot}K$ at 330 K. |
