Pr3+-doped calcium niobium gallium garnet (Pr:CNGG) single crystals with different pr3+concentrations are successfully grown by the micro-pulling-down (μ-PD) method.The crystal structure,room-temperature absorption spectra,and fluorescence spectra of Pr:CNGG crystals are measured and discussed.The fluorescence results indicate their large dependence on the doping concentration.The fluorescence lifetime of the 1 D2 energy level is also determined.The results indicate that Pr:CNGG crystal could be a potential solid-state laser gain medium.
