采用提拉法生长出了钕掺杂钪酸钆晶体(Nd3+:GdScO3), 通过低温吸收光谱和室温发射光谱, 对其中Nd3+的实验能级进行分析指认, 确定了Nd3+:GdScO3的66个实验Stark能级, 拟合了其自由离子参数和晶体场参数, 拟合均方根误差为13.17 cm–1. 与Nd3+:YAP和Nd3+:YAG相比, Nd3+:GdScO3的晶场强度较弱. 弱的晶体场强度有可能是Nd3+:GdScO3晶体具有优良激光特性的原因之一. 本文数据集可在https://www.doi.org/10.57760/sciencedb.15702中访问获取.

Gadolinium scandate (GdScO3) crystal has a perovskite structure, belonging to an orthogonal system, and its space group is Pnma (No. 62). Due to the disordered distributions of Sc3+ and Gd3+ ions, different cation sites can be replaced by doped ions, which indicates that GdScO3 crystal has a high tolerance for structural distortion. Compared with other oxide crystals, GdScO3 crystal has lower phonon energy of about 452 cm–1, which reduces non-radiative relaxation between adjacent energy levels and has strong thermal stability. In addition, GdScO3 crystal birefringence is large, and as a laser material, it can eliminate the adverse effects caused by thermal birefringence, such as thermal depolarization loss. As an active ion, Nd3+(4f3) is an ideal four-level system. Therefore, Nd3+:GdScO3 crystal has a broad application prospect as a laser crystal matrix material. However, the study of Nd3+:GdScO3 crystal field energy level fitting and crystal field parameters has not been reported to the authors’ knowledge. Neodymium-doped gadolinium scandiate (Nd3+:GdScO3) crystal is grown by the Czochralski method. The absorption spectrum in a range of 250—2650 nm is tested at a low temperature (8 K), and the emission spectrum at room temperature is also tested. The experimental energy levels of Nd3+ are analyzed and 66 experimental Stark levels of Nd3+:GdScO3 are identified. For the doped trivalent rare earth ion crystals, the energy level structure of rare earth ion is related to its luminescence characteristics, so it is necessary to study its energy level structure. In recent decades, parametric crystal field models have been widely applied to various rare-earth ion doped garnet crystals. The parametric model is used to analyze and fit the crystal field energy levels of Nd3+ doped orthogonal GdScO3. The fitted root mean square error is 13.17 cm–1. The resulting free ion parameters and crystal field parameters are calculated and analyzed, and the crystal field intensity is calculated. Fitting results show that the parameterized Stark levels are in good agreement with the experimental spectra, and the results are ideal. Comparing with Nd3+:YAP and Nd3+:YAG, the crystal field strength of Nd3+:GdScO3 is weak. The weak crystal field strength may be one of the reasons for the excellent laser properties of Nd3+:GdScO3 crystals. But its microscopic mechanism needs further studying. All the data presented in this paper are openly available at https://www.doi.org/10.57760/sciencedb.15702.-
