Spectroscopic and laser properties of erbium and ytterbium co-doped photo-thermo-refractive glass
摘要: Spectral-luminescent characteristics of erbium ions in photo-thermo-refractive (PTR) glasses doped with different concentrations of ytterbium and erbium oxides were investigated in this work. X-ray diffraction pattern of studied glasses was carried out. Judd-Ofelt parameters of intensity Ωt were obtained and used for deriving emission cross-sections and radiative lifetimes. It was found that the peak emission cross-sections values at a wavelength of 1.53 μm obtained from F-L and McCumber methods are 0.59 × 10?20 cm2 and 0.60 × 10?20 cm2, respectively, which are very similar and compared with those of silicate glasses. A quite high value of quantum yield at the wavelength of 1.53 μm for the sample with 0.1 mol% Er2O3 co-doped with ytterbium oxide has been investigated. Energy transfer efficiency from ytterbium ions to erbium ones was found to be 80% and 86% for erbium- and 1 mol% and 2 mol% Yb2O3-co-doped PTR glass, respectively. Laser properties of 2Yb-01Er PTR glass were carried out. The gain spectrum starts to be positive when the population inversion parameter gets to 0.5. Laser action was demonstrated at room temperature. It was found that the round-trip losses of the Er/Yb-PTR element are 0.28%.

Effects of raw material ratio and post-treatment on properties of soda lime glass-ceramics fabricated by selective laser sintering
摘要: A reliable method for fabricating soda lime glass-ceramics by selective laser sintering was demonstrated. The effect of the ratio of glass powder to epoxy resin and sintering process on the properties and microstructure of glass-ceramics was investigated. Research shows that: with the improvement of glass powder proportion, sintering shrinkage rate declined and mechanical strength could be improved gradually. When the mass ratio of glass powder and epoxy resin powder was 18:1 and heat-holding at 740℃ for 3 h, the shrinkage rate of the sample was 21.11% and the bending strength reached 95.45 MPa. Therefore, this research laid a foundation for 3D printing to fabricate high performance and complex structure glass-ceramics.

Femtosecond-laser direct-writing volume phase gratings inside Gea??Asa??S chalcogenide glass
摘要: In this study, volume-phase gratings (VPGs) were fabricated inside Ge–As–S chalcogenide glasses (ChG) with femtosecond-laser writing technology. VPGs with high thicknesses were obtained through single-step writing by exploiting the self-focusing effect of highly nonlinear ChGs. The clear diffraction patterns and high diffraction efficiency of the prepared gratings indicated their high optical performance. Testing results showed that the diffraction efficiency of VPGs first increased with laser pulse energies and then decreased when the laser damage threshold of the glass reached 9.42 nJ. Grating thickness also exhibited the same trend as laser pulse energies and reached the maximum value of 28 μm at 9.42 nJ. The changes in the refractive indexes of volume gratings fabricated under different laser pulse energies were carefully investigated. The changes in the refractive indexes of the gratings remained at the same level while laser pulse energy was increased. Meanwhile, grating thickness played a key role in diffraction efficiency. The maximum diffraction efficiency of the prepared VPGs reached 50% at 808 nm under optimized laser parameters.

Interfacial Engineering for Gradient Optical Fiber
摘要: Gradient functionalization is a widely applied process in materials science that involves generating gradient distribution of composition or structure to yield materials with new functions or improved properties. Here an interfacial engineering is described for construction of gradient fiber, which exhibits gradient distribution of active centers, bonding configuration, and the resultant optical response. It is shown that the interfacial diffusion of protype niobium (Nb) in the core and cladding region of the fiber can be tuned via rational control of the viscosity of melt and the subsequent thermal activation. This leads to gradient distribution of Nb species and active [NbO6]7? centers within 10–20 μm region. As a result, unique optical properties including the tunable energy transfer between active centers and special annular emission beam can be obtained. These results highlight a fundamental principle to develop novel photonic fibers and provide a great step in expanding the scope of gradient materials.

Investigations in the fabrication of surface patterns for wettability modification on a Zr-based bulk metallic glass by nanosecond laser surface texturing
摘要: Laser texturing has previously been employed to enhance the wettability of metallic alloys. Such studies reported that modifying the wettability of a surface is a result of changes in both its topography and its chemistry. In this paper, an investigation about laser-induced surface wettability modification is also reported but for a less studied type of material in this context. In particular, nanosecond (ns) laser processing was employed to texture two types of surface patterns, i.e. dimples and grooves, on the surface of a Zr-based bulk metallic glass (BMG) known as Vitreloy 105. The specific focus of the research was on understanding the role played by both surface topography and chemistry modifications in changing the wettability of the original surface. Using static contact angle measurements, it was found that groove patterns enhanced the hydrophilicity of the original BMG, while dimple patterns weakened it. Based on the obtained 3D surface measurements and XPS data, it is suggested that the reduced hydrophilicity of dimple-textured surfaces was driven by the decrease of hydrophilic C=O and O=C-O bonds post laser processing. While these bonds were also reduced for groove-textured patterns, the hydrophilicity was still enhanced following laser irradiation as a result of the dominant role that a much larger induced surface roughness should play in this case.

Hybrid glass optical fibers-novel fiber materials for optoelectronic application
摘要: Hybrid glass optical fibers incorporated with optoelectronic materials and functionalities are highly anticipated for potential applications in optical communication, remote sensing, biomedicine, and nonlinear optics. However, the design and construction of hybrid glass fibers present significant challenges due to restrictions on the composition of fiber fabricated using conventional chemical vapor deposition (CVD) methods and the difficulty in maintaining the optoelectronic performance stably of fiber prepared by common rod-in-tube fiber-drawing technique. In this review, a versatile fiber-drawing approach which is called “melt-in-tube” (MIT) or “molten core” is presented to produce hybrid glass optical fibers. During the fiber-drawing process, the core is melted whereas the cladding is only just softened. The recent advances of the hybrid glass fibers including glass core-glass cladding fiber, crystal core-glass cladding fiber, and semiconductor core-glass cladding fiber are reported. In addition, the extensive applications of the hybrid glass fibers in the fields of fiber laser, fiber sensing, frequency conversion, photodetection and thermoelectric conversion are also discussed. These breakthroughs and advances in novel fiber materials and applications offer new opportunities for the research and development of optoelectronic devices.

Waveguides written in silver-doped tellurite glasses
摘要: We have studied the optical properties of channel waveguides written using a femtosecond laser in tellurite-zinc glasses doped with metallic silver (%TeO2%ZnO:Ag). Our findings showed that the tellurium dioxide glasses could be significantly affected by the silver presence, even with low silver concentration. By properly choosing the parameters and glassy matrix the written waveguides presented lower optical insertion losses and greater refractive index change.

Insulating Polymers for Enhancing the Efficiency of Nonfullerene Organic Solar Cells
摘要: A series of insulating polymers are used as additives in nonfullerene organic solar cells (OSCs) for the first time. A significant relative power conversion efficiency (PCE) enhancement of up to 16% is observed with an introduction of polystyrene for only 5.0 wt% into the active layer of OSCs. Other insulating polymers possessing linear nonconjugated backbones with different side chains are also incorporated into OSCs and the resultant PCE enhancement decreases with the decrease in the side chain size. Another important issue that is noted is the glass transition temperature of the polymer additive. When the glass transition temperature is higher than the thermal annealing temperature of the active layer, the polymer additive plays a negative effect on the device performance and the device efficiency decreases monotonically with the increase in addition amount. So the effect of the insulating polymer additives in nonfullerene OSCs can be attributed to the reconstruction of the active layer films, which increases the crystallinity, carrier mobility, and carrier lifetime of the organic semiconductors in the bulk heterojunction of the devices. This work provides a guideline for the selection of polymer additives in OSCs apart from the consideration on the optoelectronic property of the additives.

Glass formation in amorphous ZnO films revealed by chip calorimetry
摘要: In this work, we utilize the high heating/cooling rates of chip calorimetry to perform in situ annealing of an inkjet-printed zinc oxide solgel ink consisting of zinc acetate, 2-methoxyethanol, and monoethanolamine and directly observe the thermodynamic signatures of its corresponding structural phase transformations. We find that rapid solvent removal achieved by annealing above the boiling point of the solvent, similar to an industrial drying technique known as flash drying, induces the formation of (cid:1) 98% amorphous zinc oxide films having an unprecedented, largely pronounced glass transition while retaining its semiconductor properties evidenced by field-effect transistor measurements. Thin-films produced at comparable heating rates to those used for calorimetry experiments are used to corroborate these findings using independent measurements. Prepared films exhibit a clear amorphous halo centered about the three most prominent Bragg positions of the wurtzite phase of ZnO and remain thermally stable against crystallization until 250 (cid:3)C have a room temperature thermal conductivity of (cid:1) 1:03–1:4 W m(cid:4)1 K(cid:4)1 (consistent with recent ab initio estimates) with supporting evidence of a structural relaxation near TG consistently observed in both electronic and thermal conductivity.

Bismuth-Doped Phosphate Glasses and H+-Implanted Waveguides
摘要: The work reports on the preparation and optical characterization of 75P2O5-15B2O3-9Al2O3-Bi2O3 glass by using the melt-quenching method and absorption spectroscopy, respectively. Further, 0.4-MeV proton implantation of a ?uence of 8.0 × 1016 ions/cm2 was carried out on this glassy sample and it was tested as a waveguide at a wavelength of 632.8 nm for the ?rst time to our knowledge. The m-line curves of the waveguide were measured before and after successive annealing treatments. The formation theory of the planar waveguides is discussed through simulations of the energy loss distribution and analysis of the reconstructed refractive index pro?le. The results should be useful in the design and fabrication of bismuth-doped phosphate glass and its use in integrated photonics devices.
