Popis: |
The detailed site-selective and time-resolved fluorescence laser spectroscopy and kinetic measurements with high spectral and nanosecond temporal resolution were applied to analyze the M and N absorption bands at the 4 I 9/2 (1) yields 4 G 5/2 (1) crystal field (CF) transition in the CaF 2 :Nd 3+ crystal at 4.2 K. It was found that at helium temperatures the dynamically split spectral line at the 4 I 9/2 (1) yields 4 G 5/2 (1) CF transition of coherently coupled Nd 3+ ions in the pair M- and quartet N-centers is inhomogeneously broadened. Small variation of fluorescence lifetimes of the 4 F 3/2 and 4 D 3/2 levels due to small variation of distances between Nd 3+ ions in the pairs was found. Approximately 1 percent variation of the Nd-Nd distance in the pair -center was determined form lifetime variation of the 4 F 3/2 manifold. |
