Lifetime investigation of fluorescence from neodymium: Yttrium aluminium garnet at elevated temperatures
Abstract
An investigation of the fluorescence decay time of Nd:YAG in the temperature region from 300 to 1100 K has been carried out, the results compared with those available from published sources, and possible mechanisms discussed.
