Resumo
Light diffusion with gain in highly scattering gain media, well known random lasers (RLs), has received
considerable attention for several years due to its unique properties and its potential applications. Random
lasers have has been demonstrated in a wide variety of media, including powdered of rare-earth crystals,
reporting pulsed and continuous-wave lasing emission.
In this work, gain competition and linewidth narrowing is experimentally analyzed in an optical pumped
random media, observing a sharp threshold and pulsed emission on only one transition, namely, the
4
F3/2→4
I11/2.
The powder was obtained by grinding 1.4mol% Nd3+:YVO4 laser crystal using an agate mortar and a
pestle. The disc sample with flat surfaces had dimension of Ф5x1 mm3
, prepared by compressing the
powder with a manual punch tablet.
For experiment, at room temperature, a QCW laser diode bar was used as the pump source, tuned to the
maximum of the Nd3+ absorption for this sample at 809 nm, with 100 µs pulse width and 3 Hz of repetition
rate. The excitation beam was focused to a square shape with area of 5.33 mm2
. The sample backscattered
luminescence, caused by the normally incident beam from the diode bar, was separated from pump
excitation by using a beam splitter, then collected and analyzed using an oscilloscope and a spectrometer in
a several incident powers.
For low pump intensity (0.81 mW/mm
2
), several fluorescent emissions from 4G7/2→4
I9/2,
4G5/2→4
I9/2,
4
F3/2→4
I9/2, and 4
F3/2→4
I11/2 Nd3+ transitions were visible. However, increasing the pump intensity to 5.7
mW/mm
2 we observed a sharp threshold on the 4
F3/2→4
I11/2 transition (1064.12 nm). Also, the spectral
width (from 1.30 nm to 0.48 nm) and decay time (from 141 µs to 71 µs) of this transition decreased as a
function of pump power, demonstrating that we obtained stimulated random emission for this sample.
Others fluorescent emissions suffered a spectral quenching.
