摘要
We present the results of measurements of the time evolution of the fluorescences at wavelengths between 400 and 2500 nm, emitted from an optically pumped Tm,Ho:YAG crystal in response to pulsed excitation at 785 nm. The measurements have been performed as a function of the pumping laser fluence. Comparison of the experimental results with the predictions of a rate equation model of this system has permitted to establish precise values for the rate parameters governing the relevant ion-ion interaction processes inside the crystal.
