Abstract

Trivalent neodymium (Nd3+)-doped boro-bismuth glasses have been prepared adopting the high temperature melt and quick quenching procedure and investigated their physical and optical characteristics. Physical properties and their relationship with the composition are demonstrated. Judd-Ofelt parameters have been derived using absorption spectra of Nd3+ ions embedded boro-bismuth glasses and are taken to estimate radiative parameters of the fluorescent states of Nd3+ ions. The calculated radiative properties, experimental quantities derived from emission spectra and decay curves of the 4F3/2 state provide comprehensive optical properties of the glasses besides their emission capability for the laser activity near 1.06 μm.
