Efficient continuous wave laser operation of Tb3+-doped fluoride crystals in the green and yellow spectral regions

In this work Tb3+ is revisited as a laser ion for efficient visible laser operation. In detailed spectroscopic investigations of absorption and fluorescence properties we reveal, that neither the spin‐forbidden transitions nor the widespread belief of excited state absorption or upconversion into 4f...
