Resumo
This report details the first study of the fundamental spectroscopic properties of a new optical material
for prospective application as a gain medium for fiber laser emission at 3.9 mm. We have investigated the
decay processes that are relevant to the excited states of the 5I5 / 5I6 transition in singly Ho3þ-doped
InF3 (fluoroindate) glass using time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. The HoF3 concentration in the
glass was 10 mol.%. We excited the 5I7 and 5I6 energy levels using selective excitation at 1982 nm and
1150 nm, respectively.We have established that a strong energy-transfer upconversion process by way of
the well-known dipole-dipole interaction between two holmium ions excited to the 5I6 level populate
the 5I5 (upper laser) level of the 3.9 mm transition. The 5I6 and 5I5 energy levels emit luminescence with
measured peaks located at 2.85 mm and 3.92 mm, respectively and the luminescence efficiencies of these
emissions are 78% and 0.2%, respectively. Results from numerical simulations show that for this high
Ho3þ concentration, a population inversion for the 3.9 mm transition is reached only for a short time
(t < 100 μs) after direct upper laser level pumping at a wavelength of 889 nm.
