Abstract :
Thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of Nd3+ doped GdVO4, YVO4, LuVO4 and Y3Al5O12 were determined by temperature wave method. At 1 at% Nd3+ doping concentration YVO4 in c-cut showed the highest thermal conductivity than GdVO4 and Y3Al5O12. Thermal anisotropy was found in highly Nd3+ doped level of GdVO4 in c-cut and [110] directions.
