在铽镓石榴石(TGG)晶体中掺杂Pr3+离子能够有效提升材料的磁光性能, 但目前缺乏系统的理论计算阐明此问题. 本文根据量子理论, 分析了掺杂Pr3+离子的影响机理并进行了定量计算. 根据微扰理论解算久期方程, 得到自旋-轨道耦合、晶场、有效场及离子之间的超交换作用下, Tb3+, Pr3+离子的能级位移及波函数; 进一步解算出Tb3+, Pr3+离子自基态4f至5d的跃迁电偶极矩、各能级上的分布概率及平均磁矩; 获得了Pr:TGG晶体的维尔德常数和磁化率, 以及维尔德常数与Pr3+离子掺杂量之间的关系. 研究结果表明: 由于Pr3+离子引起的法拉第旋转角较Tb3+离子大, 同时Tb3+离子和Pr3+离子之间强烈的超交换作用引起了能级的进一步分裂, 导致Pr:TGG晶体维尔德常数明显提升; 掺杂Pr3+离子后, 晶体内部有效磁矩增高, 磁化率增大, 且温度依赖性降低; 维尔德常数数与Pr3+离子掺杂量成分段线性关系, 当晶体内部的Tb3+离子和Pr3+离子含量相等时, 达到最大值. 本文的计算结果与已有的实验数据符合较好.
Compared with those materials with superior magneto-optical properties, such as YIG, Ce:YIG and Ba3Tb(PO4)3, pure terbium gallium garnet (TGG) crystal has comparative low Verdet constant and cannot meet the requirements of some high-power devices. Doping Pr3+ ions in TGG crystal can remarkably enhance its magneto-optical properties and expand its application scope, but there are still lack of systematic theoretical calculations to clarify this phenomenon. Based on the quantum theory, this paper presents the influence of doping Pr3+ ions on the magneto-optical performance and the corresponding quantitative calculation results. Firstly, taking various effects on Tb3+ ions and Pr3+ ions in the crystal into consideration, the Hamiltonian is modeled and discussed in detail. The secular equations are solved by applying the perturbation method, and then the energy level shifts and wave functions of the Tb3+ ions and Pr3+ ions are worked out, where the spin-orbit coupling, crystal field, effective field and super-exchange interaction between the two types of ions are considered. Furthermore, the transition dipole moments of Tb3+ ions and Pr3+ ions from the 4f ground state to higher level 5d, together with the distribution probability at each energy level and the average magnetic moment, are resolved. Finally, the Verdet constants and magnetic susceptibilities of pure TGG crystal and Pr:TGG crystal are calculated and compared with each other. Moreover, the relationship between the Verdet constant of Pr:TGG crystal and the Pr3+-doping amount is derived. The results show that the Faraday rotation angle caused by Pr3+ ions is larger than that of Tb3+ ions, meanwhile, the strong super-exchange between Tb3+ ions and Pr3+ ions causes further splitting of the 4f energy level, resulting in a significant increasement of the Verdet constant of the Pr:TGG crystal, which reaches 313.4 rad/m·T, 191.2 rad/m·T and 60.4 rad/m·T at the wavelengths of 532 nm, 632.8 nm and 1064 nm, respectively. In addition, doping Pr3+ ions inside the crystal improves the internal effective magnetic moment, which can reach 9.92 μB at 10 K. At the same time, the magnetic susceptibility increases, while the temperature interdependency decreases. The linear relationship between the reciprocal of magnetic susceptibility and temperature reduces from 4.41/K to 3.92/K. The Verdet constant of the Pr:TGG crystal is linear with the amount of Pr3+ ions doping. When the contents of Tb3+ ions and Pr3+ ions inside the crystal are equal, the maximum value is reached, which is about 2913.4 rad/m·T. The calculation results in this paper are in good agreement with the existing experimental data. -
