Abstract: Crystal with composition Li2Zn2(MoO4)(3) doped with 0.7 at.% Yb (Yb:LiZnMo), with high optical quality and a length of a few cm is grown from the flux using Li2MoO4 as a solvent. Yb:LiZnMo is orthorombic (sp. gr. Pnma, a = 5.0843 angstrom, b = 10.4927 angstrom, c = 17.6742 angstrom, Z = 4). Polarized Raman spectra are studied for this crystal; the most intense band is observed at 898 cm(-1). The absorption, stimulated-emission and gain cross-sections of Yb3+ ions are determined for the principal light polarizations, E parallel to a, b, c. The maximum sigma(SE) = 6.6 x 10(-21) cm(2) at 1011 nm for E parallel to b. The gain bandwidth for Yb:LiZnMo is up to similar to 50 nm. The radiative lifetime of the Yb3+ ions is 1.55 ms. The Yb:LiZnMo crystals are very promising for broadly tunable lasers.
