PLD-grown Yb-doped Sesquioxide Films on Sapphire and Quartz Substrates

This paper focuses on the fabrication and characterization of crystalline Yb-doped sesquioxide films (Yb2O3, Yb:Lu2O3, Yb:Sc2O3) grown by pulsed laser deposition on single crystal sapphire (α-Al2O3) and quartz (α-SiO2) substrates as well as on lutetia (Lu2O3) and scandia (Sc2O3) substrates. Such ytt...

Zusammenfassung:This paper focuses on the fabrication and characterization of crystalline Yb-doped sesquioxide films (Yb2O3, Yb:Lu2O3, Yb:Sc2O3) grown by pulsed laser deposition on single crystal sapphire (α-Al2O3) and quartz (α-SiO2) substrates as well as on lutetia (Lu2O3) and scandia (Sc2O3) substrates. Such ytterbium doped active films can be promising for use in a thin-disk laser setup. X-Ray diffraction measurements show that the films grow highly textured along direction. The ω-scan (rocking curve) shows deviation of the crystallite orientation ∼4° in case of Lu2O3 and Yb2O3 films and
