通过提拉法成功生长了GdScO3及Yb:GdScO3晶体, 分别对这两种晶体进行了空气气氛退火和氢气气氛退火, 并进行了X射线粉末衍射、激光拉曼光谱和透射光谱测试, 通过Rietveld精修给出了晶体的晶胞参数、原子坐标和温度因子等. 发现空气气氛退火使晶胞体积增大, 氢气气氛退火使晶胞体积减小, 说明氮气气氛中生长的晶体存在氧填隙缺陷, 空气气氛退火使晶体氧填隙缺陷增加, 氢气气氛退火减少了氧填隙缺陷. 退火气氛对GdScO3和Yb:GdScO3晶体的拉曼峰都不敏感, 掺Yb3+离子后使155 cm–1, 298 cm–1, 351 cm–1拉曼峰减弱或消失. 可见, 850 nm波段的GdScO3吸收损耗可能主要来自于氧填隙引起的缺陷能级吸收; Yb:GdScO3和GdScO3在1000—3000 nm波段的吸收损耗则由于空气或氢气气氛退火在导带或价带附近产生了陷阱能级所致. 这些结果为进一步优化和研究稀土掺杂GdScO3晶体的激光性能奠定了基础.GdScO3 and Yb:GdScO3 single crystals are grown by the chzochralski method in nitrogen atmosphere, and they are characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD), Raman spectra and transmission spectra . Their lattice parameters, atomic coordinates and temperature factors are determined by Rietveld refinement. It is found that the cell volume of GdScO3 and Yb:GdScO3 annealed in air atmosphere increase, but after these sample are annealed in H2 atmosphere their cell volumes decrease. Based on these results, we demonstrate that the crystal grown in nitrogen atmosphere has interstitial oxygen atoms, and the number of interstitial oxygen atoms in the sample annealed in air atmosphere increases, but that annealed in H2 atmosphere decreases. The Raman peaks of 155 cm–1, 298 cm–1, 351 cm–1 of GdScO3 are weakened or even disappear when Yb3+ ions are doped into it. The Raman spectra of the Yb:GdScO3 unannealed and annealed in H2 and air atmosphere are nearly consistent with each other, which indicates that Raman spectrum is insensitive to the defects such as oxygen interstitial caused by annealing. It is suggested that the optical loss of GdScO3 in the visible wavelength originates mainly from the defect energy level absorption of oxygen interstitial, and transmissivity of Yb:GdScO3 increases when it is annealed in hydrogen atmosphere, which results from the fact that ytterbium ion can reduce some interstitial oxygen atoms. When GdScO3 and Yb:GdScO3 are annealed in air or hydrogen atmosphere, the optical absorption loss of GdScO3 and Yb:GdScO3 in a wavelength range of 1000–3000 nm increase due to the trap level produced near the conduction or valence band. The effect on structure and spectral properties of Yb:GdScO3 and GdScO3 are explored preliminarily, which is useful for further studying and optimizing laser performance of rare earth doped GdScO3 crystal.
