Abstract
This paper presents a detailed analysis of the linear and nonlinear optical properties of PbO–GeO–SiO2 glasses doped with the rare earth elements (RE) Yb and Tm with varying Si concentration. Various physical parameters have been described through systematic experimentation and analysis. Among the parameters studied are Urbach energy, energy gap, third-order nonlinear susceptibility and Judd–Ofelt parameters. This research was carried out to gain a better understanding of the effect of RE doping and silicon concentration on the optical properties of these glasses, with the aim of exploring their potential applications in photonics and optoelectronics. The results showed that RE doping and variation of silicon concentration significantly affect the optical properties of the glasses.
期刊介绍:
Optical Materials has an open access mirror journal Optical Materials: X, sharing the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review.
The purpose of Optical Materials is to provide a means of communication and technology transfer between researchers who are interested in materials for potential device applications. The journal publishes original papers and review articles on the design, synthesis, characterisation and applications of optical materials.
OPTICAL MATERIALS focuses on:
• Optical Properties of Material Systems;
• The Materials Aspects of Optical Phenomena;
• The Materials Aspects of Devices and Applications.
Authors can submit separate research elements describing their data to Data in Brief and methods to Methods X.
