  1. We report on the materials development and infrared (IR) optical spectroscopy of Dy3+-doped into the ternary lead halides compounds TlPb2Br5 and CsPbCl3 for photonic applications. The investigated Dy-doped ternary lead halides were synthesized from purified starting materials followed by melt-growth using vertical Bridgman technique. Under optical pumping at 1.35 m (6H15/26H9/2+6F11/2), broad mid-IR emissions in the ~2.9 µm (6H13/26H15/2), ~4.3 µm (6H11/26H13/2), and ~5.4 µm (6H9/2 +6F11/2 6H15/2) regions were observed at room-temperature. Compared to Dy: TlPb2Br5, the mid-IR emission from Dy: CsPbCl3 was significantly weaker suggesting the existence of non-radiative losses. Temperature dependent lifetime studies and a Judd-Ofelt analysis were performed for Dy: TlPb2Br5.

    We report results of the optical properties of Dy-doped CsPbCl3 and KPb2Cl5 bulk crystals for potential applications in yellow solid-state laser development. The crystals were synthesized from purified starting materials and melt-grown by vertical Bridgman technique. Optical transmission measurements revealed characteristic absorption bands from intra-4f transitions of Dy3+ ions. Direct optical excitation at 455 nm (6H15/2 -> 4I15/2) resulted in dominant yellow emission bands at 575 nm from the 4F9/2 excited state of Dy3+ ions. In addition, both crystals exhibited weaker emission lines in the blue (483 nm) and red (670 nm) regions. The peak emission-cross sections for the yellow transition (4F9/2 -> 6H13/2) were determined to be 0.22 x 10^20 cm2 for Dy: CsPbCl3 (lpeak = 576.5 nm) and 0.59 x 10^20 cm2 for Dy: KPb2Cl5 (lpeak = 574.5 nm). The spectral properties and decay dynamics of the 4F9/2 excited state were evaluated within the Judd-Ofelt theory to predict total radiative decay rates, branching ratios, and emission quantum efficiencies.
