Abstract

This paper reports the growth and spectroscopic properties of Pr3+:Sr3La2(BO3)4 crystal. A transparent Pr3+:Sr3La2(BO3)4 crystal with large size has been successfully grown by the Czochralski method. The spectral parameters of Pr3+:Sr3La2(BO3)4 crystals have been calculated and analyzed based on the Judd-Ofelt theory. The emission cross-sections, fluorescence lifetime and the fluorescence quantum efficiency of the 1D2 multiplets were estimated. The investigated result regarded Pr3+:Sr3La2(BO3)4 crystal as a potential medium for solid-state laser..
