Different concentration of (0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 1.0 & 1.5) mol% of europium doped lead borate lithium glasses were prepared by melt quenching method. The properties of thermal, photoluminescence & structural were analyzed using DTA, FTIR and emission spectra. Emission spectra was used to evaluate the Judd-Ofelt (JO) parameters. Radiative parameters like stimulated emission cross-sections (σe), effective band width (∆λeff), transition probabilities (A), optical gain bandwidths (σe x ∆λeff), radiative lifetime (τrad) and optical gain (σe x τrad) values were evaluated for the transition 5D0→7Fj (j=1, 2, 3 and 4) of Eu3+ ions. The outcome of transition 5D0→7F4 at its highest value of branching ratios and stimulated emission cross-section are evaluated with the literature. Hence we can could the prepared host glass doped with Eu3+ ions are good fibre amplifiers and it can be used as a red laser.
