Abstract
Spectroscopic properties of Gd3Ga5O12-Er3+ films that are grown by the epitaxial method are investigated. It is shown that excitation relaxa tion from the S-4(3/2) State occurs in the frame of ion-ion interactio ns. The microparameters of donor-donor and donor-acceptor energy trans fer from the S-4(3/2) State are obtained. Both spectroscopic and techn ological data indicate that epitaxial Gd3Ga5O12-Er3+ films hold much p romise as an active medium for a 3-mu m laser.
