Photoluminescence and attenuation of spray-pyrolysis-deposited erbium-doped Y2O3 planar optical waveguides.

چکیده
Erbium-doped Y20 3 planar optical waveguides have been fabricated by spray-pyrolysis deposition. The attenuation spectrum of the waveguide shows peaks that are due to absorption of the erbium ions. The as-deposited layers also show photoluminescence sharply peaking at 1540 nm with additional Stark splitting. The thin layers of Er 3:Y 203 obtained are promising for the realization of integrated-optic amplifiers and lasers.

Studies on Structural and Optical Characterization of In-Zn-S Ternary Thin Films Prepared by Spray Pyrolysis
Thin films of indium doped zinc sulfide (ZnS) for different indium (In) concentrations (x=0.0 - 0.8) were deposited onto glass substrate by spray pyrolysis method at 523K temperature. Aqueous solution of zinc acetate, indium chloride and thiorea were used to deposit the In-Zn-S film. The deposited thin films were characterized by Energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM)...
متن کاملSelective modification of the Er 3 ¿ 4 I 11 Õ 2 branching ratio by energy transfer to Eu 3
We present an investigation of Er photoluminescence in Y2O3 waveguides codoped with Eu . As a function of europium concentration we observe an increase in decay rate of the erbium I11/2 energy level and an increase of the ratio of photoluminescence emission from the I13/2 and I11/2 states. Using a rate equation model, we show that this is due to an energy transfer from the I11/2→I13/2 transitio...

Optical planar waveguides have been fabricated by the titanium in-diffusion process in lithium niobate crystals activated with erbium ions. The waveguides were studied by m-line technique in order to recover the index profile. The effect of the Ti in-diffusion on the structural and spectroscopic properties of the lithium niobate crystals was investigated by Raman and photoluminescence spectrosc...

Terbium doped Y2O3 planar waveguides were fabricated by sol–gel process and dip-coating using yttrium acetate as precursor. Two different doping modes were compared, i.e. introduction in the sol of dispersed Tb3+ions from dissolved Tb(NO3)3, or of nanoparticles of Tb2O3 or [Y2O3:50% Tb] from an alcoholic suspension. The chemical and nanostructural properties were analyzed by infrared spectrosco...
