Abstract

The spectral and luminescent properties of the Cu+ ion in an NaCl crystal are studied and the amplification is obtained at the 3d 10→3d 94P transition, which is under excitation by the fourth harmonic of an Nd:YAG laser (λ=266 nm). It is found that the short-lived absorption is related to an uncontrollable nickel impurity in the crystal.
