Abstract
Optical spectroscopic properties of Er3+ and Tm3+ ions in a tellurite glass, TeO2-BaO-SrO-Nb2O5 (TBSN), were investigated for C- and S-band optical amplifications. On the basis of consideration for cross relaxation among Tm3+ ions and multiphonon relaxation, it was shown that the presence of Nb2O5, which was a source of the highest energy phonon, contributed to the relaxation processes in TBSN glasses.
