Observation of Optical Refrigeration in a Holmium-doped Crystal
Saeid Rostami, Alexander R Albrecht, Azzurra Volpi +1
We report the first demonstration of solid-state optical refrigeration of a Ho-doped material. A 1 mol% Ho-doped Yttrium Lithium Fluoride (YLF) crystal is cooled by mid-IR laser ra…
