掺钕锂铝硅玻璃陶瓷制备和发光性能研究

采用传统熔融及退火技术,引入合适的添加剂于相对低温下成功制备出掺钕锂铝硅玻璃,通过控制成核和析晶工艺制备出锂铝硅玻璃陶瓷。采用差热分析、X射线衍射、扫描电镜、紫外可见近红外分光光度计和荧光光谱仪对材料进行表征。三个发光谱带中心波长位于890 nm,1065 nm和1330 nm处,分别对应于4F3/2→4I9/2,4F3/2→4I11/2和4F3/2→4I13/2跃迁。玻璃陶瓷晶相及晶粒大小对Nd3 离子发光性能影响很大。当Nd3 离子进入晶粒尺寸为10~20 nm的β--锂霞石固溶体时,发光强度与基质玻璃相比明显增强,在1065 nm处的受激发射截面iσn达1.931×10-21cm2,比基质玻璃受激发射截面提高了约8%。当β--锂霞石固溶体晶粒尺寸接近可见光波长时钕离子发生荧光猝灭。而当β--锂霞石固溶体晶型转变为β--黝辉石固溶体时,荧光猝灭消失。     

ZBLAN玻璃中Nd~(3+),Tm~(3+),Yb~(3+)的上转换发光特性

采用高温固相法制备了Nd,Tm和Yb掺杂的ZBLAN玻璃上转换材料.Tm3+,Yb3+的摩尔浓度分别固定为0.01%,0.3%,Nd3+摩尔浓度变化范围为0.1%～2%.在室温下,测试了样品在300～1 000nm间的吸收光谱.在798 nm近红外光激发下,测试了样品的上转换光谱.实验发现,样品在798 nm红外光激发下发出了较强的多波段(红,蓝和绿)的可见光.由上转换可见光各波段的发射谱线,给出了能级跃迁机制.蓝光主要来源于Tm3+的激发态1G4到基态3H6的跃迁,绿光来源于Nd3+的2H7/2到基态4I9/2的跃迁,红光来源于Nd3+的2H11/2到基态4i9/2的跃迁.研究发现,在Nd3+,Tm3+,Yb3+:ZBLAN玻璃样品中存在激发态吸收,能最转移和交叉弛豫等上转换过程.其发光机理是Nd3+,TM3+和Yb3+离子之间的能量转移.根据Nd3+摩尔浓度不同其上转换发光强度不同,分析了掺入稀土的浓度对上转换发光效率的影响.当Nd3+浓度为1.5%(摩尔分数)时上转换发光最强,大于1.5%后发光开始减弱.

Effect of temperature on luminescence and VUV to visible conversion in the YAl3(BO3)4:Dy (YAB:Dy) crystal

Spectroscopic properties of the Dy³⁺-doped YAl₃(BO₃)₄ crystal were studied from the vacuum-ultraviolet to near-infrared spectral range. Optical results were interpreted in terms of the 4fⁿ, 4fⁿ⁻¹5d and charge transfer transitions. It was found that the VUV electronic excitation is transferred to the optically active ions giving emission from the ⁴F_9/2 fluorescent level of Dy³⁺. The temperature variation of the Dy³⁺ fluorescence kinetics was observed; the ⁴F_9/2 lifetime increased with increasing temperature. This phenomenon is not usually observed in other rare-earth-doped media. The discussion of dysprosium emission properties and their temperature dependency was based on the assumption that the rates of transitions originating in individual crystal field levels of the ⁴F_9/2 emitting multiplet are significantly different.

Radiative and non-radiative decays from the excited state of Ti3+ ions in oxide crystals

The fluorescence spectra of Ti³⁺ in Y₃Al₅O₁₂ (YAG), Al₂O₃ (sapphire), YAlO₃ (YAP) observed at 10 K are composed of zero-phonon lines accompanied by the broad vibronic sidebands. The temperature dependence of the fluorescence lifetime and of the total intensity of the broadband measured in YAG and Al₂O₃ indicate that the radiative decay times from the excited states are nearly constant in the range 10–300 K. This demonstrates that the broadband radiative emissions in Ti³⁺:YAG and Ti³⁺:Al₂O₃ are due to magnetic dipole transitions or to electric dipole transitions induced by static odd-parity distortion, respectively. The decrease of the fluorescence lifetime with increasing temperature in Ti³⁺:YAG and Ti³⁺:Al₂O₃ is due to non-radiative decay from the excited state which occurs through phonon-assisted tunnelling between the excited and ground states. The radiative decay of Ti³⁺:YAP is enhanced with increasing temperature, indicating that radiative decay rate contains a term associated with odd-parity phonons. Nevertheless, a non-radiative decay rate of 3.6 × 10⁴ s^–1 observed in the temperature range 10–300 K is due to excited state absorption, which depopulates the excited state and quenches the fluorescence at the laser wavelength.

Site symmetry and crystal field splittings of Ce 3+ in LiLuF 4 and LiSr 0.8 Ca 0.2 AlF 6

Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra of Ce 3+ in LiLuF 4 (LLF) and LiSr 0.8 Ca 0.2 AlF 6 (LSCAF) observed at low temperatures (<20 v K) show that the Ce 3+ centers have tetragonal and pseudo-trigonal symmetry with ( g , g )=(2.751, 1.467) and (2.14, 0.80), respectively. The EPR lines of Ce 3+ in LSCAF are inhomogeneously broadened by different Ce 3+ configurations which correspond to the random occupation of the second nearest neighbor cation sites by Ca 2+ and Sr 2+ and/or charge compensators. These EPR results indicate that the Ce 3+ centers in LLF and LSCAF are associated with substitution of Ce 3+ for Lu 3+ with eight-fold coordination and Sr 2+ /Ca 2+ with six-fold coordination, respectively. Fourier transform infrared absorption has been used to measure transitions between the 2 F 5/2 ground state and the 2 F 7/2 multiplet of Ce 3+ in LLF at 10 v K. The optical absorption and luminescence of Ce 3+ :LLF and Ce 3+ :LSCAF in the UV range are strongly polarized. The energy levels and polarization dependence of the optical transitions can be accounted for in terms of the crystal field potential experienced by the Ce 3+ ions under the action of the different point group symmetries.     

Nd3+ near UV and visible fluorescence in YAP:Nd

The present paper summarizes detailed investigations of Nd³⁺ fluorescence spectra in YAP:Nd laser crystal in the broad spectral range of 370–1100 nm at liquid nitrogen temperature. Especially, Nd³⁺ near UV and visible fluorescence spectra were studied for the first time in this crystal. The Nd³⁺ near UV and visible fluorescence spectra of this crystal consist of many narrow lines (up to 50). The Nd³⁺ near UV and visible fluorescence lines arise mainly from⁴D_3/2 and²P_3/2 Nd³⁺ terms (transitions from⁴D_3/2,²P_3/2 to lower lying Nd³⁺ levels are responsible for their appearance). At room temperature the fluorescence spectra consist of broad bands with narrow lines (mainly⁴D_3/2⁴F_3/2,⁴F_5/2 and²H_9/2 transitions).     

Fluorescence spectra and homogeneous line widths of Cr in glass nucleating ferroelectric Li2Ge7O15

We report optical studies of the new material – Cr³⁺-doped lithium–germanate glass, containing Li₂Ge₇O₁₅ (LGO) nanocrystalline particles. While only broadband ⁴T₂–⁴A₂ fluorescence from the low-field octahedral Cr³⁺ sites was observed from Cr³⁺ ions in the glass, in LGO nanocrystals high-field Cr³⁺ centers emit ²E–⁴A₂ (R–lines) fluorescence. The process of crystallization in the course of isothermal annealing of glasses was monitored spectroscopically and the nucleation of LGO crystallites was observed starting from the smallest clusters. Using the ²E–⁴A₂ fluorescence spectra it is possible to detect the ferroelectric phase transition in LGO:Cr³⁺ nanocrystals, whose critical temperature was found to be similar to that of the bulk crystals. Long-lived spectral holes were burned in the inhomogeneously broadened R-lines of Cr³⁺ in LGO nanocrystals at low temperatures. The linear temperature dependence of hole widths shows that the homogeneous broadening of ⁴A₂–²E transitions of Cr³⁺ in nanocrystals is due to interaction of Cr³⁺ electronic levels with the two-level systems (TLS) of the surrounding glass. The range of the Cr³⁺-TLS elastic dipole–dipole interaction is estimated.
