Abstract
We have studied the effect of temperature on the radiative and nonradiative energy transfer processes between Cr3+ and Nd3+ in GSGG. The radiative energy transfer rate was found to decrease slowly with increasing temperature. The nonradiative energy transfer rate was calculated as a function of temperature from the Cr lifetime data and found to increase with increasing temperature. The integrated intensity of the Nd emission in the GSGG: Cr, Nd sample, when the system is pumped in the Nd absorption bands, is constant with temperature (and so is the Nd lifetime); however, when the system is pumped in the Cr absorption bands, it has a different temperature dependence. A model, that takes into account the variations of the energy transfer process with temperature is presented to explain these phenomena and the temperature dependence of the Nd emission in the GSGG: Cr, Nd sample.
