The double roles of Yb^3+, as a sensitizer and as an average component, are discussed. It is found that Yb^3+ as an average component contributes to the increase of fluorescence lifetime, and Yb^3+ as a sensitizer has the best sensitization when its concentration is 2.4 mol%.展开更多

The weight-loss rate of is 1.3 × 10^-5 gcm^-2h^-1 in boiling water, which is comparable to Kigre's QX-Er glass. Some spectroscopic parameters are analysed by Judd-Ofelt theory and McCumber theory. The emission cross section is calculated to be 0.73 × 10^-20 cm^2. The thermo-mechanical properties of EAT5-2 are modified after an ion-exchange chemical strengthening process in a KNO3/NaNO3 molten salt bath. The thresholds for optical damage from the flashlamp pumping are tested on glass rods. A repetition rate of 15 Hz is achieved for chemically strengthened glass. The laser experimental results at 1.54 μm from flashlamp pumping are also reported.展开更多

Infrared spectra are measured to estimate the exact content of OH- groups in the samples. Based on the electric dipole-dipole interaction theory, the interaction parameter CEr,Er for the migration rate of Er^3+:^4 I13/2 → ^4I13/2 in proposed glasses is calculated.展开更多
