Review of tellurite glasses purification issues for mida??IR optical fiber applications
摘要: We reviewed the tellurite glass purification studies performed over the last 20 years, in particular dealing with the mid-infrared transmission performances. Best results are obtained under rich O2 atmosphere with platinum crucibles although Gibbs energy calculations show that other crucibles material are possible such as gold or alumina. From the point of view of the thermodynamics of involved oxidation reactions only, we identified the suitable conditions based on Gibbs energy calculations to be a synthesis temperature set above 900K and a O2 pressure around 105 Pa. The performances of the different purification technics were also compared. Finally, we analyzed the tellurite fibers recently optimized for mid-infrared which present low attenuation up to 4 μm allowing supercontinuum generation up to 5 μm.

Thermal properties of high purity zinc-tellurite glasses for fiber-optics
摘要: The thermal properties of the series glasses (TeO2)(0.86-x)(ZnO)x(La2O3)0.04(Na2O)0.1 were studied. The heat capacity and characteristics of transitions between aggregative states were determined by the method of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) in the temperature range 320-950 K. The experimentally obtained values of thermal conductivity, density and coefficient of thermal expansion at room temperature are as follows: 1.14 ± 0.06 W/(m?K), 5.20 ± 0.02 g/cm3 and (54.6 ± 1.2)?10-6 K-1, respectively. The model-statistical processing of calorimetric data was used to determine the complete set of standard thermodynamic functions together with their approximation to the unexplored low-temperature region by means of parametric similarity. The approach allows predicting the functions for unexplored intermediate glasses compositions.

Structural and spectroscopic studies on the concentration dependent erbium doped lithium bismuth boro tellurite glasses for optical fiber applications
摘要: High gain and better optical properties are the key requirement for the optical fibers and amplifiers to meet the current technological demand. In this regard, in the present investigation, erbium doped lithium bismuth boro tellurite glasses are prepared using melt-quenching technique. The prepared glasses were extensively characterized through, XRD, DSC, UV–Vis-NIR and also Luminescence and Decay techniques to study the concentration dependent structural, optical and luminescence properties. Prepared glasses are amorphous in nature and the corresponding band gap energy decreases with erbium concentration indicates increase of metallicity of the glasses. FTIR studies show different vibration modes majorly borate groups. In addition, Judd-Oflet theory is employed to derive different optical parameters such as intensity parameters, oscillatory strength, branching ratio, stimulated emission cross section and time decay to validate the experimental results of prepared glasses towards optical fiber applications. Estimated values of Stimulated emission, effective band width and gain band width values found higher when compared with other host glasses. Results also show that, 100% branching ratio is obtained for the highest intense peaks corresponds to the transition 4I13/2 → 4I15/2 in NIR luminescence spectra for 1.53 μm broad band. For power dependent 980 nm excitation, up-conversion spectra shows two transitions, namely 4S3/2 → 4I15/2 and 4F9/2 → 4I15/2 at 541 and 655 nm corresponds to green and red emission respectively. From the McCumber’s theory, the absorption and emission cross section more comaprable values are obtained for 1 mol% erbium doped glass. About 40% population inversion is obtained with C band from 1500 to 1550 nm. The results suggests that, the prepated glasses are the potential candidates for optical fiber applications.

Nd <sup>3+</sup> Doped In Zinc Barium Tellurite Oxyfluoride Glasses For Laser Application
摘要: The tellurite glasses doped with Nd3+ ion were prepared with the compositions (55-x)TeO2-10ZnF2-35BaO-xNd2O3 (where x = 0.00, 0.05, 0.10, 0.50 1.00 and 1.50 mol%) by the normal melt quenching technique and characterized the spectroscopic properties. The spectroscopic properties of tellurite glasses measured from the absorption and emission measurements with Judd-Ofelt analysis. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern confirms the amorphous nature. UV-Vis-NIR absorption spectra of tellurite glasses divulged nine significant peaks. The absorption peaks slightly increase with increasing of Nd3+ concentration. The NIR emission spectra at 913, 1,069 and 1,341 nm have been registered for Nd3+ in tellurite glasses, which corresponds to the transitions originating from 4F3/2 level to the 4I9/2, 4I11/2 and 4I13/2 levels of Nd3+ ion, respectively, under the excitation of 523 nm. The results indicate that the prepared glass system could be a suitable candidate for using it as laser gain media around 1,069 nm.

AIP Conference Proceedings [AIP Publishing ADVANCES IN BASIC SCIENCE (ICABS 2019) - Bahal, India (7–9 February 2019)] ADVANCES IN BASIC SCIENCE (ICABS 2019) - Upconversion emission of Ag nanoparticles with Er3+/Yb3+ ions in tellurite glasses under 980nm laser excitation
摘要: The light upconversion in Er3+ - Yb3+ doped TeO2 -WO3- Li2O (TWLEY) doped glass containing silver nanoparticles (NPs) has been reported. Tellurite based glasses have been prepared by melt quenching technique with small amount Ag nanoparticles(NPs). The optical excitation is made at 980 nm in resonance with the 2F5/2→2F7/2 transition of Yb3+ ions in glass system. Intense emission bands centered at 525nm, 550nm, and 654 nm were observed corresponding to Er3+ ions transitions. Upconversion fluorescence Intensity of the glasses samples are also observed at 980nm femtosecond laser excitation using two photons microscope. For this green and red colour intensity measurement of the TWLEY with Ag NPs glass sample has been analyzed by intensity histograms. Results show that plasmon enhances upconversion of silver and rare-earth doped glasses may be utilized to explore its potential for multiphoton microscopy.

[IEEE 2019 Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics Europe & European Quantum Electronics Conference (CLEO/Europe-EQEC) - Munich, Germany (2019.6.23-2019.6.27)] 2019 Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics Europe & European Quantum Electronics Conference (CLEO/Europe-EQEC) - Rare-Earth Doped Oxide Glasses and Fibers for Lasers Emitting in the 2÷3 μm Spectral Range
摘要: The aim of this investigation is the search of novel promising materials for solid-state and fiber lasers emitting in the spectral range 2÷3 microns, i.e. out of the range where the well-developed rare-earth doped silica fibers can successfully operate. We have stopped our choice on tellurite and calcium aluminate glasses. In contrast to silica glasses, both these glass types can contain high (>1021 cm-3) amounts of rare earth dopants. In contrast to ZBLAN glass that is widely used for mid-infrared fiber lasers, both tellurite and aluminate glasses can be quite stable to air moisture. Furthermore, calcium aluminate glasses are prominent for their extraordinary mechanical properties (better than those of fused silica). Our spectral investigations have shown that deeply dehydrated tellurite glasses (TG) are very suitable hosts for 2.3 μm Tm3+ lasers and can be also used as a host for 2.7 μm Er3+ lasers. As for calcium aluminate glasses (CAG), their phonon spectrum is not suitable for 2.7 for μm lasers. But the emission properties of Tm3+ ions in this host show some unusual feature. Two-micron Tm3+ emission band in CAG is anomalously widened and red shifted so that it overlaps well with the 2.3μm emission band. Thus continuous tuning of Tm doped CAG fiber laser from ~2μm up to ~2.4μm is conceivable. Figures 1 and 2 give some examples of bulk Tm-doped TG and CAG lasing properties. Fig. 1 shows the 2.3μm lasing parameters of 30 mm long TG sample when pumped by a pulsed ruby laser. CAG in similar conditions showed cascade lasing at 2.3μm and 2.1μm. Fig. 2 shows the lasing parameters of a quasi CW diode-pumped CAG chip laser, operating at the wavelength of 2.1 μm. Surely most practical applications of such laser glasses require fiber configuration. We have developed the laboratory technology of TG multimode and single-mode double-cladding fibers fabrication. In Tm doped TG fibers laser action at 1.9 μm and 2.3 μm was successfully demonstrated. Er doped fibers were also manufactured but 2.7 μm laser action in them requires highly reflective fiber Bragg gratings to be made in them. Fabrication of CAG fibers is a very complicated technological task due to high tendency of CAG to devitrification. Nevertheless, using “rod-in-tube” method we have prepared an optical fiber starting from Tm-doped CAG rod in a silica tube. Unfortunately, the core of this fiber contained too much SiO2 diffused from the cladding. The choice of a suitable lower-melting cladding glass should solve the problem. Thus, the properties of deeply dehydrated rare-earth doped tellurite and calcium-aluminate glasses are shown to be quite pertinent for lasers emitting in the 2÷3 μm spectral range.

Nd3+ doped new oxyfluoro tellurite glasses and glass ceramics containing NaYF4 nano crystals ??1.06?μm emission analysis
摘要: Oxyfluoro tellurite glasses with chemical composition TeO2-ZnO-YF3-NaF (TZYN), doped with Nd3+ in different concentrations were prepared by the melt-quenching technique. Judd–Ofelt analyses of Nd3+ ions in the precursor glasses were performed to evaluate the phenomenological intensity parameters Ω2,4,6. From the NIR emission spectra, characteristic parameters such as effective band with (?λeff) and stimulated emission cross section (σP) were calculated for the three observed transitions, 4F3/2 → 4I9/2, 4I11/2 and 4I13/2 and compared to other reported glasses. Based on the luminescence decay times of 4F3/2 excited state, the quantum efficiency was evaluated and it is highest for a 0.2 mol% Nd3+ doped glass (G-Nd2). Glass ceramics were obtained by controlled heat treatment of the glasses at 390oC for 5h (as determined by DSC), which is greater than the glass transition temperature Tg. Moreover, DSC results revealed that precipitation of the NdYF4 nanocrystalline phase (TC1) decreased with increasing Nd3+ concentration. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) investigations reveal that spherical NaYF4 nano-crystals are distributed homogeneously across the glassy matrix. The emission intensity of the 4F3/2→4I11/2 transition at 1.60 μm was enhanced in glass ceramics as compared to glasses because of the occupancy of the Nd3+ in NaYF4 nanocrystlline phase. The experimental lifetime value of 4F3/2 also enhanced from 124 to 187 μs from G-Nd2 glass to GC-Nd2 glass ceramic and decreased with increasing Nd3+ concentration.

Elastic moduli of TeO2–PbO glass system
摘要: Binary glasses (1 ? x)(TeO2) ? x(PbO) with x = 0, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25, 0.30 mol% prepared using the melt quenching have been studied in this work. The amorphous nature of the glasses is confirmed by XRD analyses. Density, ρ and molar volume, Vm were measured for more information on structural changes. The ultrasonic velocities (longitudinal and shear) were obtained using the method of pulse-echo at 5 MHz resonating frequency. The elastic moduli, namely longitudinal (L), shear (G), Young (E) and the bulk (K) moduli were obtained from the density and ultrasonic velocities measurement. The softening temperature (TS), Debye temperature (θD), Poisson’s ratio (σ), fractal bond connectivity (d), microhardness (H) and acoustic impedance (Z) were obtained from the elastic moduli. The transition temperature ( Tg ) and thermal expansion coefficient (αP) were also calculated. The experimental elastic moduli data and the values calculated theoretically from the bond compression, Makishima–Mackenzie, and Rocherulle models were compared in this work.

Physical Properties and Structural Studies of Lithium Borophosphate Glasses Containing TeO2
摘要: This work presents a study on the structure, thermal behavior and properties of (100-x)[0.5Li2O-0.1B2O3-0.4P2O5]-xTeO2 glasses prepared within the concentration range of x=0-80 mol% TeO2. The structure of the glasses was studied with a combined Raman, 31P and 11B MAS NMR spectroscopy. 31P MAS NMR and Raman spectrum of the pure 50Li2O-10B2O3-40P2O5 glass indicates the co-existence of Q2 and Q1 phosphate units in the glass structure. Raman spectra of TeO2 containing glasses revealed that TeO2 is incorporated in the structural network in the form of TeO3 and TeO4 (TeO3+1) units. The ratio of TeO4/TeO3 increases with rising TeO2 content. Apart from the formation of P-O-Te and Te-O-Te bonds, the formation of B-O-Te bonds in the form of mixed tetrahedral units B(OP)4-n(OTe)n also takes place as shown by 11B MAS NMR spectroscopy. The structural studies were correlated with the thermal behavior and physical properties of glasses (density, molar volume, chemical durability and refractive index). DSC studies showed that all glasses crystallize on heating within a temperature region of 400-550°C and the surface nucleation mechanism prevails over the internal one. The crystallization temperature decreases with increasing TeO2 content. The compounds formed by crystallization were LiPO3, Li4P2O7, BPO4 and α-TeO2. Glass transition temperature and dilatometric softening temperature, estimated from thermodilatometry curves, decrease with increasing TeO2 content, whereas the thermal expansion coefficient increases.

Stuctural, optical and radiation shielding properties of zinc boro-tellurite alumina glasses
摘要: In this work, boro-telluride glasses with additional zinc, aluminum, and alkali–alkaline modifiers have been synthesized using the melt-quenching–annealing method. Six glasses were fabricated with composition of [(60 ? x)B2O3–(10 + x)TeO2–10ZnO–10Al2O3–5Li2O–5MgO] all in mol% and x varied from 0, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50. The aim of this work is to understand the effect of changing the main glass former from B2O3 → TeO2, to obtain new optical materials. To confirm the amorphous nature of these six glasses, X-ray diffraction was characterized for all six glasses from 10° to 80°. Optical absorption with wavelength range 200–800 nm in room temperature was measured, and the optical absorption coefficient α(λ) calculated to obtain the cutoff wavelength. In addition, gamma photons shielding features of the prepared K1–K6 glasses were evaluated by means of some essential parameters such as mass attenuation coefficients (μ/ρ) and effective atomic number (Zeff) at five energies between 0.356 and 1.33 MeV. No significant difference between the theoretical and simulation μ/ρ values was found. The effective atomic number results indiacte that as the TeO2 content increases, the photons’ attenuation increases. The number of interactions of gamma photons with K6 sample (which contains the maximum amount of TeO2) is relatively high (in comparison to the rest of the samples), which results in more attenuation and thus better shielding features for K6.
