A wideband near-IR (NIR) luminescence centered at 1080 nm was found in a RbPb(2)Cl(5):Bi single crystal grown by the Bridgman technique. Absorption, luminescence, and excitation of spectra were investigated room cryogenic temperatures. The proposed to be due (3)P(1)-->(3)P(0) transition Bi(+) ion.
Near infrared (IR) applications have considerably profited from the use of flexible and robust fibre-optical probes. So far, a comparable technique for mid-IR was not available due to low stability lack robustness fibres. We report newly developed miniaturised diamond ATR-probe with high chemical resistance pressure based on fibre optics. The routine convenient application in glove box highly air- oxygen-sensitive reactions millilitre scale is reported, as well monitoring solventless...
Oscillation at 5.5μm wavelength has been investigated in the low-phonon, moisture-resistant RbPb2Cl5:Dy3+ crystal free-running mode room temperature. In line with our knowledge this is longest laser for a rare-earth doped that does not require any special precautions survival. Spectra and kinetics of luminescence new were under pumping to 1.3 μm absorption band, corresponding lasing experiments. Emission cross sections determined mid-IR transitions. It was found emission section on...
Microstructured crystalline optical fiber from silver halides is described. Both experimental and theoretical evidences are presented to establish that the effectively single mode at wavelength 10.6 micro m with numerical aperture NA=0.16 losses of approximately 2 dB/m. Crystalline microstructured fibers offer key advantages over step-index halide crystals.
