Ce3+对Er3+/Yb3+共掺氟磷酸盐玻璃光谱性质的影响

研究了能量接受离子Ce3+对Er3+上转换发光强度以及Er3+在1.5 μm附近波段发光性能参数的影响,并从能量匹配及能级结构角度出发对Er3+/Ce3+间的能量转移机制进行了分析.分析认为,4 I11/2能级的Er3+通过无辐射能量转移把能量传递给2F5/2能级的Ce3+激发其跃迁至2F7/2能级,而4I11/2能级上的Er3+则无辐射弛豫至4I13/2能级,从而有效降低氟磷酸盐玻璃中Er3+的上转换发光.当Er3+浓度为1.11×1020 cm-3时,Ce3+的最佳掺杂浓度为2.22×1020 cm-3,此时Ce3+的引入不仅可以降低上转换发光,而且有助于提高Er3+在1.5 μm附近波段的荧光强度、发射截面以及4I13/2能级荧光寿命.     

高能、超短脉冲、可调谐激光器用掺镱氟磷酸盐玻璃研究进展

Yb^3 与其它稀土离子相比有最简单的能级结构，这使它具有一些独特的性质，如避免激发态吸收，消除上转换和浓度猝灭等，因此它是高能输出激光器介质的理想掺杂离子。氟磷玻璃综合了氟化物玻璃和磷酸盐玻璃的优点，可降低磷酸盐的声子能量，改善其易吸湿性；提高氟化物玻璃的物理化学性能等，这使它成为稀土掺杂可调谐光纤激光器的很好的掺杂介质。众多研究表明，Yb^3 掺杂氟磷玻璃是一种很有前途的激光工作物质。本文总结了Yb^3 掺杂氟磷玻璃的特点，性质，结构及存在的问题。     

Gain Characteristics of Er^3＋-Doped Phosphate Glass Fibres

An erbium-doped phosphate glass fibre has been drawn by the rod-in-tube technique in our laboratory. The gain for the Er^3＋-doped phosphate glass fibre with different pump powers and with different input signal wavelengths is investigated. The 2.2-cm-long fibre, pumped by a single-mode 980-nm fibre-pigtailed laser diode, can provide a net gain per unit length greater than 1.SdB/cm. The pump threshold is about 50mW at the wavelength of 1534nm, and below 70roW at 1550nm. The gain linewidth of the Er^3＋-doped phosphate glass fibre is greater than 34 nm and can cover the C band in optical communication networks.     

Effects of Nb2O5 on thermal stability and optical properties of Er3+-doped tellurite glasses

Er³⁺-doped tellurite glasses with molar compositions of xNb₂O₅-(14.7-x)Na₂O--10ZnO--5K₂O--10GeO₂-- 60TeO₂--0.3Er₂O₃ (x=0, 3, 5, 7 and 9) have been investigated for developing 1.5~μm fibre and planar amplifiers. The effects of Nb₂O₅ on the thermal stability and optical properties of Er³⁺-doped tellurite glasses have been discussed. It is noted that the incorporation of Nb₂O₅ (x=5) increases the thermal stability of tellurite glasses significantly. Er³⁺-doped niobium tellurite glasses exhibit a large stimulated emission cross-section (7.2\times 10^-21- 10.7×10^-21~cm² and the gain bandwidth, FWHM×\sigma_e^{\rm peak} (274\times 10^-28 - 480×10^-28~cm³), which are significantly higher than that of silicate and phosphate glasses. In addition, the intensity of upconversion luminescence of the Er³⁺-doped niobium tellurite glasses decreases rapidly with increasing Nb₂O₅ content. As a result, Er³⁺-doped niobium tellurite glasses might be a potential candidate for developing laser or optical amplifier devices.

Broadband 1.5-um emission of erbium-doped TeO_2-WO_3-Nb_2O_5 glass for potential WDM amplifier

Erbium-doped glass showing the wider 1.5-um emission band is reported in a novel oxide system TeO2-WO3-Nb2O5 and their thermal stability and optical properties such as absorption, emission spectra, cross-sections and fluorescence lifetime were investigated. Compared with other glass hosts, the gain bandwidth properties of Er3+ in TWN glass is close to that of bismuth glasses, and larger than those of tellurite, germanate, silicate and phosphate glasses. The broad and flat 4I13/2-4I15/2 emission and the large stimulated emission cross-section of Er3+ ions around 1.5um can be used as host material for potential broadband optical amplifier in the wavelength-division-multiplexing (WDM) network system.
