Abstract

Yb3xY3(1−x)Al5O12 crystals with different Yb3+ concentration have been grown by the Czochralski method. The distribution coefficient of Yb3+ is 1.08±0.01, and it has little relation with Yb3+ concentration. The lattice parameter of YbAG is 1.193799±0.000054 nm. We have found an equation connecting the lattice parameter and Yb3+ concentration: <f>α(x)=1.200976−0.007072x</f> nm. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
