  • EPR spectra of the high-temperature superconductor YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$ doped with ytterbium have been measured at 77-300K. The superconducting, orthorhombic phase shows a spectrum at g = 2.08 (Spectrum O). As the temperature is lowered, another line ascribable to $Yb^{3+}$ grows gradually at g = 3.31. The intensity of Spectrum O was determined using Yb as the internal reference. The semiconducting, tetragonal phase shows a spectrum at g = 2.06 (Spectrum T), different from Spectrum O. The origins of these spectra are discussed.

  • In this paper, we have studied the characteristics of stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) and mode instability (MI) in a ytterbium-doped polarization-maintaining fiber laser with master oscillator power amplifier configuration. We measured the laser output power and back-reflection spectrum for a variety of ytterbium-doped fibers and seed lights, to investigate the power-scaling limits of fiber lasers. By optimizing the laser structure, we demonstrated an all-fiber high-power polarization-maintaining fiber laser with near-diffraction-limited beam quality. The output power of 1.5 kW was achieved with a linewidth of 10 GHz, generated by pseudo-random binary sequence (PRBS) phase modulation. The beam quality M2 was about 1.15 at the maximum output power. The polarization extinction ratio (PER) was greater than 17 dB.

  • We had clarified the reactions of the rare earth oxides($RE_2O_3$) with lithium oxide produced in lithium reduction process of oxide fuels. Oxides of scandium, yttrium, praseodymium, neodymium, samarium, europium, gadolinium, ytterbium and lutetium reacted with lithium oxide in the higher concentration than the respective certain critical concentration of lithium oxide and formed complex oxides($LiREO_2$). The critical lithium oxide concentrations for the formation of complex oxides of scandium, yttrium, praseodymium, neodymium, samarium, europium, gadolinium, ytterbium and lutetium oxide were respectively 0.1 wt%, 1.9 wt%, 5.3 wt%, 5.0 wt%, 3.0 wt%, 3.9 wt% 2.9 wt%, 2.6 wt% and 0.3 wt%. Cerium and lanthanum oxide did not react with lithium oxide. These complex oxides obtained from experiments have limited solubility in lithium chloride at $650^{\circ}C$.

  • Perdeuterated hexaflouroacetyIacetonato-ytterbium $[Yb(HFA-D)_3]$ complexes were synthesized by the keto-en01 tautomerism reaction of $Yb(HFA-D)_3$ in methanol-$d_4$ in order to reduce the radiationless transition to the ligands. The luminescence properties of $Yb(HFA-D)_3$ complex were measured in the following anhydrous deuterated organic solvents ; Acetone-$d_6$, Methanol -$d_4$, THF-$d_6$, PO$(OHC_3)_3$ and DMSO-$d_6$. The intensity, lifetime and quantum efficiency of the luminescence in DMSO-$d_6$ were superior to those in other deuterated solvents. It was suggested that the anhydrous DMSO-$d_6$ might be the most appropriate solvent for the liquid laser material of $Yb(HFA-D)_3$ complex.
