Abstract:In the Pr3+-doped Y2SiO5,the population in 1D2 of Pr3+ can be transferred to 3P0 state via non-radiative energy transfer by the laser excitation in resonance with 3H4→1D2,and we can experimentally study the Stark splitting of 3H4 energy level via 3P0→3H4 anti-Stokes emission spectra. Because the anti-Stokes emission spectra can avoid the energy transfer between different crystallographic site 1D2 energy levels, the above splitting lines attribution is more accurate than the assignment via 1D2→3H4 Stokes spectra by the laser excitation in resonance with 3H4→1D2. In addition,the character of the anti-Stokes fluorescence decay time was observed.
