Abstract
In this study, highly Dy3+-doped germano-borate glasses for different dopant concentrations ranging from 20 to 30 mol% were fabricated and their physical, optical, and MO properties were investigated. The characteristic thermal parameters disclosed good thermal stability of <100 °C against crystallization in the studied glasses. In addition, the glasses showed a high optical transmission of ~ 85% in the NIR region of 1550 nm. A very large Verdet constant of approximately -5.36 rad/(T·m) at 1550 nm was obtained in the glass containing 30 mol% Dy2O3. Therefore, this glass might be a promising MO material for applications in the NIR region.
