摘要： Transparent glass ceramics (GCs) consisting of an homogeneous glass phase and a well-dispersed crystal phase are considered as ideal optical gain materials potentially applied in optoelectronic devices due to the combination of facile processability of glass and the intense crystal ?eld of nanocrystals. Here, a heat-induced nanocrystal-in-glass method is employed to integrate the active ions Tm3+ into Bi2Te4O11 nanocrystals with an intense crystal ?eld to realize an enhanced microlaser output. This strategy endows the e?cient tellurate GC microcavity laser operating at ≈2 μm. Compared with the laser properties of as-prepared glass microcavities, the pump threshold (260 μW) is as low as less than a quarter and the slope e?ciency (0.0296%) is 5.5 times higher. Furthermore, by carefully engineering the heat treatment temperature and duration, the crystal size and distribution can be precisely controlled. Thus, the Rayleigh scattering loss that is detrimental to quality (Q) factor is e?ectively suppressed and the GC microcavities with high Q factors up to 105 are successfully obtained. This work provides useful insight on the development of optical functional materials and expands the practical applications of GC microcavities in various optoelectronic ?elds.
