Near-infrared spatial solitons in heavy metal oxide glasses.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We demonstrate two-dimensional spatial solitons excited by near-infrared picosecond pulses in Kerr-like heavy metal oxide glasses with a nonlinearity one order of magnitude larger than in fused silica. Solitons were obtained at 820 nm owing to the presence of multiphoton absorption, which prevented catastrophic collapse.

Ultra optical glasses are proposed for attaining noble glazes of high reflection and shine. In addition, these glasses can be used as semi-mirrors and optical instruments. In this reseach attempts were devoted mainly to introduce a glass system with the highest possible refractive index in which the highest reflection is desirable. Thus different amounts of heavy metal oxides modifiers, such as...
متن کاملInfrared Study of Er3+/Yb3+ Co-Doped GeO2-PbO-Bi2O3 Glass
Heavy metal oxide glasses, containing bismuth and/or lead in their glass structure are new alternatives for rare eart (RE) doped hosts. Hence, the study of the structure of these vitreous systems is of great interest for science and technology. In this research work, GeO(2)-PbO-Bi(2)O(3) glass host doped with Er(3+)/Yb(3+) ions was synthesized by a conventional melt quenching method. The Fourie...

In order to attain glasses with ultra dispersions properties, different heavy metal oxides were used. The desired glasses were obtained from the addition of high amounts of PbO and Bi2O3 to B2O3 based glasses. Refractive index measurements were carried out accurately at different wavelengths by the minimum angle of deviation in prisms method employing a spectrometer. Results indicated that, as ...
متن کاملDesigning heavy metal oxide glasses with threshold properties from network rigidity.
Here, we show that a new class of glasses composed of heavy metal oxides involving transition metals (V2O5-TeO2) can surprisingly be designed from very basic tools using topology and rigidity of their underlying molecular networks. When investigated as a function of composition, such glasses display abrupt changes in network packing and enthalpy of relaxation at Tg, underscoring presence of fle...
متن کاملSuperbroadband near-infrared emission and energy transfer in Pr3+-Er3+ codoped fluorotellurite glasses.
We report the first demonstration of superbroadband emission extending from 1.30 to 1.68 μm in praseodymium(Pr(3+))-erbium(Er(3+)) codoped fluorotellurite glasses under 488 nm excitation. This superbroad near-infrared emission is contributed by the Pr(3+): (1)D(2)→(1)G(4) and Er(3+): (4)I(13/2)→(4)I(15/2) transitions which lead to emissions located at 1.48 and 1.53 μm, respectively. The quenchi...
