Abstract
In this work, we present the results of our recent spectroscopic investigation on Dy3+-doped Ga2Ge5S13 (Dy:GGS) glass, aiming to explore its potential for mid-infrared (3-5 µm) laser applications. Under 910 nm excitation, the studied Dy:GGS glass displayed broad emission bands centered at ~2.9 µm and ~4.35 µm corresponding to 6H13/2 --> 6H15/2 and 6H11/2 --> 6H13/2, respectively. The measured fluorescence decay time of the 6H11/2 manifold (upper laser level for 4.35 µm laser transition) was found to be in the millisecond range, demonstrating similarity to other sulfide glasses doped with Dy3+. Spectroscopic results and data modeling including the temperature dependent emission and decay dynamics, concentration dependent studies, Judd-Ofelt analysis, and transition cross-sections, will be presented.
