Abstract

Optical properties of Yb-doped LiNbO3 crystals were investigated. The low temperature absorption and
selective emission of LiNbO3:Yb3+ crystals obtained by Montoya et al were reexamined. The
LiNbO3:Yb3+ crystals absorption and emission spectra show broad emission due to the presence of four
non-equivalent sites: three octahedral sites (Li+ (S1), Nb5+(S2), and a vacant octahedron(S3)) and an
interstitial tetrahedral site(S4) . Considering the presence of these four Yb3+ion-occupied sites, and also
the electron-phonon coupling processes, the majority of emission and absorption lines was assigned.
For the different observed optical centers in LiNbO3, the experimental Stark energy levels of Yb3+ ions
were established.

Keywords
