Experimental Test Sample - YIG &GGG
3.2.1 Raman pattern recognition of YIG/GGG thin films and GGG crystals:
YIG/GGG film is a ferromagnetic film that uses epitaxial growth to grow yttrium iron garnet (Y3Fe5O12, referred to as YIG) on the substrate of gadolinium gallium garnet (Gd3Ga5O12 for short). In optical communication, YIG/GGG film is one of the core components of 1.3-1.5 micron optical isolators. Yig and GGG materials belong to the same cubic crystal system, which has 25 Raman active vibration modes (3Ag+8Eg+14T2g). A total of 11 vibration modes of 3Ag+8Eg can be observed in the VV polarization Raman scattering configuration, and 14 T2g vibration modes can be observed with the VH polarization Raman scattering configuration. In a non-polarized Raman scattering configuration, the 14 T2g vibration modes are essentially submerged in the 3Ag+8Eg vibration mode due to the scattering intensity of the 3Ag+8Eg vibration mode being much greater than the scattering intensity of the T2g vibration mode. Therefore, in a non-polarized Raman scattering configuration, we can only observe 11 vibration patterns of 3Ag+8Eg, as shown in Fig. 1.

3.2.2 Identification of the crystal field energy level (fluorescence) of THE YIG/GGG film and the GGG crystal:
Fig. 2 Non-polarized Raman scattering spectra of YIG/GGG film and GGG substrate
As shown in Fig. 1, it is known that the Raman scattering information of the phonons of the YIG/GGG film is mainly concentrated in the range of 100-1000 wave numbers. Outside the greater than 1000 beam range, their signals are mainly derived from electron transitions in the YIG and GGG crystal fields, as shown in Fig. 2. Compared with the lattice vibration spectrum, the electron spectrum of rare earth garnet has received widespread attention. There are three reasons for concern: first, rare earth garnets can be used as materials for the preparation of advanced solid-state lasers, and second, crystal field theory methods can be applied to their electron spectroscopy, which is necessary for a complete understanding of the structure of rare earth iron garnets, especially for the understanding of the hypercommunication that exists in this rare earth garnet.
For this experimental work, we found that using Raman spectroscopy, the relative wave number displacement of the incident laser wavelength to the scattered light not only provides information about the phonon and electron energies in the garnet material, but also the relative scattering intensity of Raman provides information about the wave function of the electron energy level.
As far as the function of the RMS1000 Raman spectrometer developed by us is concerned, the complete phonon spectrum and corresponding electron emission spectrum of other functional materials such as garnet can be obtained with excitation at 785nm laser wavelength, and the Raman spectrum obtained with its high signal-to-noise ratio is at the same level as the research-grade spectrometer. The RMS1000 Raman Spectrometer provides a cost-effective scientific instrument for researchers engaged in materials science research.
Finally, we briefly introduce the relevant parameters and typical spectra of this high-performance Raman spectrometer, if there are users interested in this spectrometer, please leave a message in the background or contact us directly by phone.
