Abstract

Crystal fibers of Ce³⁺ and Tb³⁺ singly doped and co-doped CaAl₄O₇ were grown by the LHPG method. Photoluminescence, excitation spectra and photoconduction were measured. Thermo-stimulated photo-ionization (delocalization) of electrons from the lowest field component of the 5d excited state of Ce³⁺ was observed in the Ce³⁺ singly doped sample under excitation at 355 nm. The 5d sublevel was found to locate at 0.3eV below the conduction band of the host. However, the thermo-stimulated photo-ionization was greatly quenched due to the fast energy transfer from the 5d sublevel to Tb³⁺ ions in the Ce ³⁺/Tb³⁺ double doped sample.
