Crystal growth of Ce : LiLuF4 for optical applications

Abstract High-quality Ce : LiLuF 4 (Ce : LLF) crystals were grown by the Czochralski technique using CF 4 as reactive atmosphere. The segregation coefficient of Ce 3+ was determined to be 0.066 (3). No changes in the lattice parameters due to the presence of the Ce 3+ in the lattice were observed. Laser action in the ultraviolet region was obtained by pumping this active medium with a KrF excimer laser in 248 nm.
