As a promising magneto-optical (MO) material applied in Faraday isolators, magnetooptical
ceramics possess excellent comprehensive properties and have attracted much attention …

In this work, the paramagnetic magneto-optical glasses with composition of GeO 2-B 2 O 3-
Li 2 O-MgO (GBLM) doped with 20–40 mol% Tb 3+ ions were prepared by the high …

High-performance magneto-optical materials are in urgent demand for high-power Faraday
isolators. The traditional Tb3Ga5O12 crystal presents a relatively low Verdet constant and …

Abstract Y 3 Fe 5 O 12 (YIG) crystals are highly desirable for the fabrication of mid-infrared
isolators with the rapid growth of optical communications, although it is rather challenging to …

Bulk c-oriented CeF3 single crystals (sp. gr. P 3¯ c 1) were grown successfully by the vertical
Bridgman technique in a fluorinating atmosphere. A description of the crystal growth …

Highlights•A novel laser and magneto-optical Er: CeF 3 multifunctional crystal was

A novel transparent Pr 3+, Ce 3+ co-doped terbium gallium garnet (Pr, Ce: Tb 3 Ga 5 O 12,
Pr, Ce: TGG) single crystal was grown by the Czochralski technique. Its transmittance is …

Abstract In this study, a 1.5 at.% Nd 3+ and 0.5 at.% Ho 3+ co-doped CeF 3 (Nd, Ho: CeF 3)
single crystal was successfully grown by the vertical Bridgman method. The absorption and …

In this work, four Pr 3+-doped CeF 3 crystals with 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8 at.% Pr 3+ ion doping
levels nominally in the melt have been successfully grown, and their absorption and …

Abstract Nd3+: CeF3 and Er3+: CeF3 crystals with different doping concentrations were
successfully grown by the Bridgman method. The physicochemical parameters, such as …
