Stepwise multiphoton excitation of the 4f25d configuration in Nd3+: YLF
1996
Abstract Stepwise multiphoton excitation of the 4f 2 5d configuration of Nd 3+ : YLF via intermediate levels in the 4f 3 configuration is investigated with nanosecond laser pulses. Strong UV and VUV fluorescence from the 4f 2 5d configuration is observed as a result of three-photon absorption of 532 nm laser pulses from a frequency doubled Nd: YAG laser. Excitation spectra from 520–536 nm show that the efficiency of the three-photon excitation of the 4f 2 5d configuration is maximized at 521 nm and 526 nm.
