Abstract
A transparent series of telluro zinc phosphate glasses with varying Dy3+ ion concentrations (BTZPDy) were synthesized using a melt-quenching procedure. The non-crystalline/amorphous form of the BTZPDy glass matrices has been demonstrated via an X-ray diffraction (XRD) profile. As a way of recognizing the proficient usage of the obtained BTZPDy glass matrices in the white light emitting devices, the spectroscopic characteristics such as optical absorption, photoluminescence excitation (PLE) and emission, as well as temperature-dependent photoluminescence (TDPL) were conducted and investigated in detail. The absorption spectrum was determined in the n-UV to NIR range for the as-prepared BTZPDy1.0 glass sample and the optical energy band gap has been assessed via utilizing Tauc’s plot. In the visible range, photoluminescence spectra demonstrate three distinct emission peaks under different n-UV excitations, among which an intense emission peak around 575 nm is related to the 4F9/2 → 6H13/2 transition in the prepared BTZPDy glasses. The color coordinates (x, y) for the prepared BTZPDy1.0 glass were situated in the white light zone of the CIE graph and adjacent to the standard white light region (0.33, 0.33). Furthermore, TDPL spectral studies suggest the excellent thermal stability of BTZPDy glass samples alongside a high value of activation energy. In view of the above results, as-prepared BTZPDy glasses can be utilized for the fabrication of thermally stable white light emitting devices.
