Relationship between the structural modifications and luminescence efficiencies of ZnF2-MO-TeO2 glasses doped with Ho3+ and Er3+ ions
C. Laxmikanth, J. Anjaiah
ZnF2-MO-TeO2 (where MO stands for ZnO, CdO and PbO) glasses doped with Ho2O3 and Er2O3 ions were prepared by melt quench method. The characterization of these glasses was done by characterized by XRD and IR spectra. The infrared spectral studies indicate relatively less disorder in ZTHo glass network in Ho3+ doped glasses and ZTE glass network in Er3+ doped glasses. The room temperature optical absorption and fluorescence spectra of these glasses have been studied and presented. The Judd-Ofelt parameters Ω2, Ω2 and Ω6 of these glasses have been evaluated from the measured intensities of various absorption bands and compared the same with those of other reported glass systems. The Judd-Ofelt theory was successfully applied in evaluating the various radiative parameters for different emission levels of these glasses and the same were reported. The highest values of the branching ratios are found to be for the emission transitions 5S2→5I8 in ZTHo glass and 4F5/2 4I15/2 in CTE, respectively, among holmium (where the transitions originating from 5G5, 5S2 and 5F3 levels) and erbium doped glasses (where the transitions originating from 2G9/2 and 4F5/2 levels).
