Investigation of Ruby Crystal Luminescence at Excitation by Spectral Lines of Visible and Ultraviolet Radiation

Frequency dependence of luminescence intensity of ruby crystal under irradiation of the sample with light-emitting diodes (LEDs) of ultraviolet and visible radiation spectra is investigated. A excessive increase of luminescence intensity inside ruby crystal for exciting radiation with wavelength 410 nm is detected. The efficiency dependence of luminescence excitation vs pump wavelength within R-line (694,2 nm) is determined.
