DECAY PROCESSES OF HIGH-FREQUENCY NONEQUILIBRIUM PHONONS IN PRASEODYMIUM-DOPED LASER CRYSTALS
We have investigated the decay of nonequilibrium phonons in YAG:Pr
3+
(1.0at.%) and LiYF 4:Pr
3+
(1.0at.%) at a temperature of 9K. Nonequilibrium phonon populations at 43.0
51.9
66.0 and 113cm
-1
are generated monochromatically with a high power pulsed far-infrared laser using defect-induced one-phonon absorption
and their temporal and spectra evolution determined using a time-resolved vibronic sideband spectrometer. We find that two decay mechanisms dominate the nonequilibrium phonon relaxation in the crystals: anharmonic decay via three-phonon-interactions and two-phonon-one-electron inelastic scattering processes. In LiYF
4
system
we observe the broad band distribution that results from the anharmonic decay of the initial monochromatic phonon population. In YAG system
the latter mechanism leads to the evolution of a highly peaked phonon distribution that persists for several phonon generations.
