Quantitative predicting physical and spectroscopic properties of silicate laser glasses using a phase diagram approach

AbstractTheoretical prediction of glass compositions with certain performance requirements is a long‐standing challenge in glass research. The difficulty lies in revealing the relationship of glass's composition–structure–property (C–S–P), and establishing a predictive calculation method for glass properties with high accuracy. Here we determine quantitatively the C–S–P relationships of four silicate laser glasses using nearest‐neighboring congruently melting compounds (CMCs) as “component and structural motifs”. For all studied silicate systems, physical properties such as density and refractive index are predicted with an error of less than 5%. Spectroscopic properties, including Judd–Ofelt parameters, fluorescence branching ratio (β), effective bandwidth (Δλeff), emission cross‐section (σe), gain bandwidth, and lifetime, are predicted with an error of less than 10%, with some properties such as β, Δλeff, and σe showing an error of less than 5% in specific systems. Four C–S–P databases have also been constructed, containing detailed physical and spectroscopic properties of over 1200 compositions, facilitating the optimization of glass composition. These findings highlight the significance of nearest‐neighboring CMCs in understanding and developing high‐performance laser glasses.

Spectroscopic study and visible luminescence of Tb3+ ions in CaF2 crystal co-activated with Yb3+

High quality crystals with composition of Ca0.95Tb0.05F2.05 and Ca0.85Tb0.05Yb0.1F2.15 were grown by Bridgman-Stockbarger technique. Yb3+ ions were used as a sensitizer for Tb3+ ions. Optical properties were measured, including the absorption spectrum, emission spectrum, and fluorescence decay curves. Judd-Ofelt theory was used to analyze the spectroscopic parameters. Fluorescence branch ratio, transition probability, radiative and fluorescence lifetimes, and quantum efficiency were determined. The emission cross section of Tb3+ ions in Tb:CaF2 and Tb/Yb:CaF2 crystals for the green emission at 544 nm, corresponding to the transitions of 5D4→7F5 were calculated to be 4.61x10-22 cm2 and 4.60x10-22 cm2, respectively. Our experiments have shown that doping with Yb3+ ions does not significantly affect the spectral properties of Tb3+ ions in CaF2 crystal. Quadratic dependence of the emission intensity of Tb3+ ion in Tb/Yb:CaF2 crystal on the intensity of a diode laser at 955 nm proved that the excitation of Tb3+ ion occurs due to the cooperative process of transferring the excitation from two Yb3+ ions to one neighboring Tb3+ ion. The Tb/Yb:CaF2 crystal can be considered as a promising up-converting medium for creating diode-pumped visible phosphorus and active laser media.

It has broad absorption band around 973 nm with a full width at half maximum of 20.76 nm and 14.71 nm for π- and σ-polarizations, respectively, which is suitable for efficient pumping of InGaAs laser diodes. Based on J-O theory, spectral parameters such as oscillator strength, line strength, J-O intensity, fluorescence branching ratio, spontaneous transition rate and radiation lifetime were calculated systematically. In the polarization fluorescence spectra, four strong emission peaks were observed at 1505, 1537, 1561 and 1586 nm. The results show that Er3+/Yb3+/Ce3+:YPO4 crystal may be a promising laser crystal suitable for 1.5–1.6 μm.

Using the melt quenching crystallization technique, Er3+-Yb3+ co-doped glass-ceramics with NaLaSiO4 crystalline phase have been successfully prepared. The optimal heat treatment condition was identified to be 605 °C/90 min. Optical band gap and Urbach energy changes were analyzed. Additionally, J-O parameters, radiative transition probabilities, fluorescence branching ratios, and stimulated emission cross sections for Er3+ were also calculated. The results of XRD refinement and crystal locality optimization verify that Er3+ is located with a low-symmetry site. The optimal emission intensity was achieved at Yb3+ doping concentration of 0.7 %. Temperature sensing was accomplished using FIR, with Sa-max of 1.15 x 10−2 K−1 (498 K) and Sr-max of 1.34 % K−1 (298 K). This Er3+-Yb3+ doped silicate glass-ceramic has potential applications in up-conversion green lasers and optical thermometers.

In this work, a variety of Sm3+ ions doped gallium silicate glasses have been made using the conventional melt quenching procedure, and characterized by X-ray diffraction, absorption spectrum, fluorescence spectrum, fluorescence decay curves, respectively. The density of the glass increases with the increase of the concentration of Sm3+ ions, and XRD shows that the samples are all amorphous glasses. Absorption spectra were used to determine the J-O intensity parameters (Ωλ, λ = 2, 4, 6), as well as the radiation transition probability(A), fluorescence branching ratio(βr), and radiation lifetime(τr) of Sm3+ ions at the 4G5/2 energy level. Under 403 nm excitation, the emission spectra show obvious emission peaks at 602 nm and 649 nm, corresponding to 4G5/2 → 6H7/2 and 4G5/2 → 6H9/2 transitions respectively. The B3 glass sample has the largest emission cross section(σem) at the 4G5/2 → 6H7/2 transition, with σem = 11.40 × 10−22 cm2. The color coordinates, color purity and color temperature values of all samples were calculated. The color purity of all samples varied in the range of 96.20%–99.14 %, with the relevant samples separating in the orange-red light region. The experimental results indicate that the glass samples have a potential application prospect in the field of orange-red LEDs.

First Achievement of Yellow Laser Operation in Dy3+-Doped Borate Crystals.

Continuous-wave (CW) yellow lasers have been demonstrated successfully by using a GaN laser-diode (LD) pumping in borate crystals for the first time. The Dy3+:GdMgB5O10 (Dy:GMB) crystal with dimensions up to 33 × 19 × 15 mm3 is grown by the top-seeded solution growth method, and the polarized spectroscopic properties are investigated systematically at room temperature. The line strengths, Judd-Ofelt (J-O) intensity, spontaneous transition rates, fluorescence branching ratios, and radiative lifetimes are calculated in detail by the Judd-Ofelt theory. Under direct pumping of 452 nm LD, a compact continuous-wave yellow laser with a maximum output power of 628 mW and laser wavelength of 581 nm is generated based on a Y-cut Dy:GMB crystal. To our knowledge, it is not only the highest output power for yellow laser obtained in Dy3+-doped crystals but also the first yellow laser operation achieved by borate crystals under direct LD pumping. The results reveal that the Dy:GMB crystal is an optical material with important application prospects in yellow laser.

Characterization and Properties of ZnO:Nd<sup>3+</sup> Nanomaterial Synthesized by Chemical Synthesis Method

Nd3+ ion-doped ZnO nanomaterial was prepared using chemical synthesis method and its fluorescence spectra have been investigated at room temperature. From SEM images of the synthesized ZnO: Nd3+ nanoparticles it is observed that an increase in concentration of Nd3+ ions leading to the decrease in the particle size. Nearly hexagonal shapes for the dark spots in the SAED images indicate that the ZnO nanoparticles are almost hexagonal. The oscillator strengths leading to 4f ↔ 4f transitions are characterized by different Judd-Ofelt intensity parameters Ωλ (λ = 2, 4 and 6). These Ωλ parameters along with the fluorescence data and various radiative properties viz., spontaneous emission probability (A), radiative life time (t), fluorescence branching ratio (b) and stimulated emission cross-section (sp) were evaluated and compared with the reported values. The values of these parameters indicate that the observed transitions 4F3/2 → 4I11/2, 4F3/2 → 4I13/2 and 4F3/2 → 4I15/2 can be considered to be good laser transitions in the near infrared region for different optoelectronic and spintronic uses.

Luminescence properties and Judd-Ofelt analysis of Tb3+ doped Sr2YTaO6 double perovskite phosphors for white LED applications.

A series of Tb3+-doped Sr2YTaO6 double perovskite phosphors (SYT:Tb3+) were synthesized using a conventional solid-state reaction method. A strong green emission was observed in the SYT:Tb3+ phosphors, and the optimal doping concentration of Tb3+ was confirmed to be 5 mol%. The electric dipole-dipole interaction was ascribed to be the main mechanism for the luminescence concentration quenching. Analysis of the concentration-dependent fluorescence decay confirmed that the self-generated quenching model holds for the dynamic process of Tb3+ decays in SYT. Furthermore, the internal quantum efficiencies, non-radiative transition rates, and energy transfer rates of the 5D4 level for the SYT:Tb3+ samples were estimated, respectively. The luminescence thermal stability of the sample was also evaluated based on the Arrhenius model. The chromaticity shift of the SYT:5 mol% Tb3+ phosphor was examined to be 0.013 when the sample temperature was increased from 303 to 483 K, thus indicating excellent chromaticity shifting resistance under high temperature conditions. Moreover, the Judd-Ofelt parameters were calculated from the emission spectra of SYT:Tb3+ to be Ω2 = 0.29 × 10-20, Ω4 = 0.45 × 10-20, and Ω6 = 0.72 × 10-20 cm2, respectively. The fluorescence branching ratios and radiative transition rates for the 5D4 level were calculated based on the obtained Judd-Ofelt parameters. Finally, a white light-emitting diode (LED) prototype was assembled using a 310 nm LED chip combined with a prepared green SYT:Tb3+ phosphor and two other commercial blue and red phosphors. The obtained warm white light exhibits good chromaticity coordinates (0.32, 0.32) and a high color rendering index of 96.1. Based on the above results, it can be known that the prepared SYT:Tb3+ phosphors have a potential application as green emitting phosphors in white LEDs.

The absorption coefficient and absorption cross section are reported, together with the line strengths of several transitions from the ground state to excited state manifold, oscillator strength of the electric and magnetic dipoles moments (fed, fmd). The emission wavelength (λem), calculated fluorescence branching ratios (βR), radiative emission probabilities (AR), total radiative emission probability (Ar) and radiative lifetime (τR) of Dy3+ in CaSrF4 crystal are investigated for the transitions from energy levels 4F9/2 (474 nm), 4I15/2 (452 nm), 6P5/2 (364 nm) and 6P7/2 (348 nm) to related sublevels. Dy:CaSrF4 crystal is a promising gain medium for a continuous wave or tunable solid state visible micro-laser under the pump wavelength of 348 nm, 364 nm and 474 nm.

Peculiar β-Li2TiO3: Eu3+ red light emitting dominated by electric dipole transition: Asymmetric lattice point regulation and luminescence performance

In order to obtain red phosphor with high color purity, β-Li2TiO3: Eu3+ dominated by electric dipole transition was prepared by the hydrothermal method. Eu3+ doping concentration (< 0.5 mol%) and calcination time (> 12 h) can regulate the phase purity, supercell development, asymmetric lattice point configuration and the luminescence performance. Under excitation at 394 nm, β-Li2TiO3: Eu3+ emits narrow band 618 nm red light due to that Eu3+ replaces Li+ at the relatively active Li1 position, and the 5D0 → 7F2 electric dipole transition dominates. Calcined at 600 °C for 36 h with Eu3+ doped concentration of 0.5 mol%, the luminescence performance of β-Li2TiO3: Eu3+ is superior, of which the lifetime is 0.64 ms, the color coordinates x = 0.63, y = 0.37, the color temperature of 987 K, the color rendering index of 82, and the red color purity of 99.7%. The electric dipole transition line intensity parameters Ω2 and Ω4 are 8.01 × 10−20 cm2 and 0.62 × 10−20 cm2, respectively, yielding Ω2/Ω4 of 12.9. The fluorescence branch ratio of 5D0 → 7F2 is 82.9%, and the quantum efficiency can reach 92%, which is superior within similar materials.

Single crystals of Dy3+ single-doped and Dy3+/Tb3+ co-doped CaYAlO4 are grown and analyzed. In comparison to Dy3+:CaYAlO4, the absorption cross sections around 453 nm and emission cross section at 582 nm acquired a growth after the incorporation of Tb3+. The fluorescence lifetimes of Dy3+:4F9/2 upper and Dy3+:6H13/2 lower laser levels for 582 yellow emission fall from 0.293 ms to 0.070 ms–0.285 ms and 0.018 ms, respectively. The fluorescence branching ratios of yellow emission at 582 nm are 49.2% and 50.733% for Dy3+:CaYAlO4 and Dy3+/Tb3+:CaYAlO4 crystals, respectively. Deactivation effect of Tb3+ ions as well as the energy transfer mechanism in Dy3+/Tb3+:CaYAlO4 crystal are discussed in detail, and the temperature dependent spectra of the two crystals are also studied as well. Those results indicate that the introduction of deactivation ion Tb3+ can be beneficial for achieving an enhanced yellow emission in Dy3+/Tb3+:CaYAlO4.

Optical characterization of Sm3+ doped phosphate glasses for potential orange laser applications

Undoped and Sm3+doped 45P2O5–45Na2O–2Al2O3–8BaO glasses were synthesized by the melt-quenching technique. The glass structure and luminescence properties were investigated by using Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), spectroscopic ellipsometry, Judd-Ofelt theory and photoluminescence. Electron microscopy showed the homogeneity of samples. Raman spectroscopy revealed that the overall structure of the glass was unaffected by the doping of Sm3+ and ellipsometry was used to measure the optical constants. Judd-Ofelt (JO) analysis was performed on the absorption bands of Sm3+ (4f5) and the three phenomenological parameters (Ω2, Ω4, and Ω6) were computed and then used to determine radiative properties such as the radiative transition probability (Ar), the fluorescent branching ratio (βr), the stimulated emission cross-section (σe) and the radiative lifetime (τrad). Photoluminescence (PL) spectrum showed the typical four transitions of Sm3+ at wavelengths of 564, 600, 645 and 703 nm corresponding to 4G5/2 → 6H5/2, 6H7/2, 6H9/2 and 6H11/2, respectively. The spectroscopic quality factors Ω4/Ω6, the predicted lifetime (τrad) calculated using the JO method and the experimentally lifetime (τexp) for the 4G5/2 level were calculated and discussed. The glass color purity is as high as 98%, which makes it a potential candidate for laser emission.

Yellow laser has been widely applied in various fields such as biomedicine, optical communication technology and chip processing. This study focuses on the preparation and characterization of a 3 at.% Dy3+:KGd(WO4)2 crystal. The crystal was grown by the top-seeded solution growth method. The absorption spectrum, excitation spectrum, emission spectrum, and fluorescence decay curve were measured at room temperature, and the fluorescence properties of the crystal in the yellow region were explored.

Fluorescence Study of Pr3+ Doped CdS Nanoparticles and its Applications in Sensors and Detectors.

Fluorescence spectra of Pr3+ doped CdS nanoparticles, synthesized by chemical precipitation method, have been recorded at room temperature. The synthesized particles are nearly spherical shaped and the grain size is decreased with the increase in Pr3+ concentration. The chemical identity of the nanoparticles was confirmed by EDAX spectrum, the absorption peaks was confirmed by FTIR spectrum and then the recorded values were compared with the CIE diagram. The oscillator strengths of the 4f ↔ 4I transitions are parameterized in terms of three phenomenological Judd-Ofelt intensity parameters Ωλ (λ = 2, 4 and 6). Using the fluorescence data and these Ωλ parameters, theoretical and experimental study of various radiative properties viz., spontaneous emission probability (A), radiative life time , fluorescence branching ratio and stimulated emission cross-section were evaluated. The values of these parameters indicate that 3P0→ 3H4 transition can be considered to be good laser transition in the visible colour region. Also, excitation with 493 nm, leads to similar blue regions. The synthesized Pr3+ doped CdS nanomaterials could be useful for sensing and detecting devices, particularly for temperature sensing measurement and bio-sensing detection.

The Br showed that the 4F3/2 → 4I9/2 transition (883 nm) was enhanced at the expense of the 4F3/2 → 4I11/2 transition (1064 nm) and (4F3/2 → 4I13/2) transition (1342 nm). A relatively high quantum efficiency (η = 0.78) was noticed for our glass. Generally the spectroscopic properties and gain factor (γ) showed that the present glass system is a promising candidate for near-infrared laser applications (883 nm).

Due to the excellent spectral properties, Eu3+-doped La2CaB10O19 (Eu3+:LCB) single crystals have shown promising prospect as a medium for laser radiation in the visible region. However, the weak absorption and emission intensities of Eu3+:LCB single crystals limit their laser application. Here, a Sm3+, Eu3+ co-doped La2CaB10O19 (Sm3+, Eu3+:LCB) crystal is grown to improve its optical performance. The intensity parameters, spontaneous transition probability, radiation lifetime and fluorescence branch ratio of the Sm3+, Eu3+:LCB crystal are studied with the Judd–Ofelt theory. Compared with an Eu3+-doped La2CaB10O19 (Eu3+:LCB) crystal, the Sm3+, Eu3+:LCB crystal exhibits higher absorption intensities and optical transition line strengths. Based on emission spectra, an energy transfer process from Sm3+ to Eu3+ ions in the Sm3+, Eu3+:LCB crystal is supposed. Fluorescence lifetimes for the Sm3+ and Sm3+→Eu3+ energy transfer process are calculated to be 1.698 ms and 3.648 ms, and energy transfer efficiency from Sm3+ to Eu3+ ions is calculated to be 13.7%. Compared with the Eu3+:LCB crystal, the emission intensity of the Sm3+, Eu3+:LCB crystal is doubled. Our work shows that the absorption and emission intensities of Eu3+:LCB crystals are significantly enhanced by co-doping with Sm3+ ions, which is conducive to their application for visible lasers.

Crystal growth and spectral properties of Eu3+-doped La2CaB10O19 single crystals

The invention and commercial application of InGaN/GaN-laser diodes have made it feasible to directly obtain the visible lasing radiation by pumping rare earth (RE) doped laser crystals. Hence searching for new laser crystals with efficient luminescence and applicable optical and physical properties in the visible range is an essential work. Here, the crystal growth and spectral properties of a series of large-size Eu3+ doped La2CaB10O19 (Eu3+-LCB) single crystals with the nominal atomic ratios of 3%, 7%, and 10% have been well studied. High-quality Eu3+-LCB single crystals with the size of 45 × 30 × 17 mm3, was grown by top-seeded solution growth (TSSG) method. The luminescence probe was employed as the tool to identify occupation sites, demonstrating that Eu3+ ions enter into La3+ sites first, then occupy Ca2+ sites after the nominal atomic ratio of Eu3+ ions exceeds 7%. Based on the absorption and emission spectra, the intensity parameters, spontaneous transition probability, radiation lifetime, and fluorescence branch ratio for Eu3+-LCB single crystals are studied with the Judd–Ofelt theory. From the transient spectra, the emission cross-section, fluorescence decay lifetime and luminescence quantum efficiency are deduced, which exhibit the maximum performance at the nominal atomic ratio of 7% Eu3+. Combining the luminescence probe and spectral properties, it can be concluded that Eu3+ doped crystals will have the best spectral properties when Eu3+ occupation at the single La3+ sites reaches the maximum in LCB single crystals, which may be universal for RE-doped crystal with two possible occupation sites. Besides, our work demonstrates that the 7% Eu3+-LCB single crystal may be a promising medium for laser radiation in the visible region in comparison with other Eu3+ doped single crystals.
