Abstract :
This contribution shows spectroscopic and lasing properties of new ytterbium-doped borate compounds with varying gadolinium and yttrium concentrations. The studied crystals dispose the structure Li6(Gd(1-x)Yx)0.75Yb0.25(BO3)3 with x = 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and 1, respectively. All compounds were grown by the Czochralski method. We studied the absorption and emission spectra and investigated the gain properties at 1030 nm. The absorption spectra were taken by transmission measurements with unpolarized light on the crystals.
