Abstract

Heavy metal oxide glasses in the system TeO₂-PbO-WO₃ doped by selected rare earth ions have been presented. The method of their preparation and physical properties were determined. Infrared luminescence of Er³⁺ and Tm³⁺ ions embedded in TeO₂-PbO-WO₃ glass hosts is reported for room and helium liquid temperatures. The substantial influence of energy transfer processes between the glass host and Er³⁺ and Tm³⁺ doped ions is shown experimentally through the dependences of photoluminescence on light polarization and excitation wavelength. The presented spectra of the rare earth doped glasses indicate on a possibility of their excitation by the Nd-YAG laser with wavelength about 1,06 um. Because of their properties this kind of glasses can be used for construction of optoelectronic devices.
