“…In the solid host materials with higher phonon frequencies, it is not easy to get efficient infrared and visible emission even in the Er 3+ , Nd 3+ , Ho 3+ , Tm 3+ , etc. The effect of host materials on the optical properties of rare earth ions introduced as doping along with compositional changes of modifiers have been studied by different workers [Babu et al, 2000;Nageno et al, 1994;Rai, 2010;Sai Sudha et al, 1996;Lin et al, 2002;Hussain et al, 2000;Nachimuthu et al, 1997;. They concluded that due to their improved radiative transition probabilities, these glasses are promising materials for different technological applications.…”
