RESUMO
The interest in the study of insulating materials doped with transition metals arises from the fact that these systems present wide emission bands in the visible and near infrared regions, which turns them especially attractive as active media for tunable radiation. In this work we will present photoluminescence, absorption and excitation measurements at room temperature, 77K and 4K temperature of the elpasolite K2LiAlF6 containing 0,01 of Cr3+ Al3+ sites. The luminescence at 300K is composed of a wide band between 650 and 850nm with barycenter at 734nm and lifetime of 0,48ms. The spectrum at 7K also located between 650 and 850nm, presents a wide band with maximum at 708nm and lifetime of 0,58nm , while the spectrum at 4K presents an intense transition at 665nm, with lifetime of 0,98ms and a rich phonon structure. These emissions are associated to the allowed-spin transition 4T2(4F)→ 4A2(4F) of the íon Cr3+ in octahedrally coordinated site. The obtained quantum efficiency is 0,58. This value indicates that the K2LiAlF6 : C3+ is an attractive candidate as active media for tunable radiation. The absorption spectra were also obtained at room temperature, 77K and 4K. These spectra present two bands, also characteristic of octahedrally coordinated Cr3+ associated to the transition from 4A2 (4F) level to excited 4T1 (4F) and 4T2 (4F) levels.
