Abstract
Laser Induced White Emission (LIWE) is the subject of research worldwide. Since its discovery, the understanding of this phenomenon has progressed successfully enough to reach industrial applications. However, a lack of understanding of the nature of this phenomenon limits its potential. This article is devoted to the study of the influence of nonradiative relaxation processes on the properties of laser induced white emission in Cr:YAG nanopowders. The concentration series of Cr:YAG nanopowders was synthetized by Pechini method. The microstructure, optical and LIWE properties were studied. The influence of chromium concentration on the number of photons involved in LIWE process (N parameter) is shown. The increase of N parameter is associated with an increase in the probability of non-radiative recombination processes with an increase of chromium concentration. A multiphoton ionization model is proposed to describe LIWE phenomenon.
