The absorption coefficient at 980 nm was 13.36 cm^(-1) with a peak absorption cross-section of 1.46 × 10^(-20) cm2. The emission cross-sections at 1034 nm and 1062 nm were 5.5 × 10^(-21) cm^2 and4.9 × 10^(-21) cm^2, respectively. The fluorescence lifetime was estimated as 1.24 ms at 1061 nm.

The crystal structure and the cell parameters are analyzed through X-ray diffraction experiments. The absorption and emission spectra are investigated. Under pumping at 324 nm, the emission spectra of V-doped MgAl6O10 obtain two emission peaks at the wavelengths of 471 and 570 nm. Two emission bands of the spectra combine to produce a spectrum that is perceived as white by the naked eye. Therefore, V-doped MgAl6O10 single crystal can be applied as substrate for phosphor-free ultraviolet (UV)-white light-emitting diodes (LEDs).展开更多
