Optical Basicity and Polarizability of Nd3+-Doped Bismuth Borate Glasses

This paper reports on different physical and optical properties of Nd3+-doped bismuth borate glasses. The glasses containing Nd3+ in (25 − x)Bi2O3:20Li2O:20ZnO:35B2O3:xNd2O3 (where x = 1, 1.5, 2 mol%) have been prepared by melt-quenching method. The amorphous nature of the glasses was confirmed by X-ray diffraction studies. The physical parameters like dielectric constant, refractive index, ion...

Thermo-optical characteristics and concentration quenching effects in Nd3+ doped yttrium calcium borate glasses.

In this work we present a comprehensive study of the spectroscopic and thermo-optical properties of a set of samples with composition xNd(2)O(3)-(5-x)Y(2)O(3-)40CaO-55B(2)O(3) (0 ≤ x ≤ 1.0 mol%). Their fluorescence quantum efficiency (η) values were determined using the thermal lens technique and the dependence on the ionic concentration was analyzed in terms of energy transfer processes, based...

Optical properties of Nd doped Bi2O3-PbO-Ga2O3 glasses.

The optical properties of a new family of neodymium doped BPG (Bi2O3-PbO-Ga2O3 ) glasses are presented. We measured a high refractive index, of 2.5, and a transmission cutoff in the far infrared at 8microm. Three intense emission bands are observed centered at 877nm, 1066nm and 1341nm. The emission cross-section is 10 -20 cm 2 and the total spectral linewidth is 30nm at 1066nm. The Judd-Ofelt p...
