“…Europium (Eu 3+ ) stands out as one of the most captivating and extensively researched RE 3+ , primarily due to its myriad applications in lasers and optical communication. Additionally, its luminescence properties exhibit remarkable sensitivity to environmental factors, rendering it an invaluable spectroscopic probe. − The 5 D 0 → 7 F 2 emission, referred to as hypersensitive, is strictly forbidden in sites with inversion centers; therefore, any distortion caused by the environment around the ion increases the emission intensity. As an electric dipole transition, the hypersensitive emission of Eu 3+ relies on the establishment of a vector within the ion, necessitating interaction with ligands.…”

Tellurite glasses have garnered considerable interest as optical host materials due to their advantageous properties, including low processing temperature, high resistance to corrosion and crystallization, and excellent solubility for rare earth ions. However, their applicability in the infrared (IR) region is limited by the absorption of species with distinct vibrations. The incorporation of fluorides has emerged as a promising approach to reduce hydroxyl (OH) absorption during the precursor melting process. In this study, we investigated the influence of ZnF2 on a glass matrix composed of TeO2-ZnO-Na2O, resulting in notable changes in the glass structure and optical properties, with Eu3+ serving as an environmental optical probe. The samples underwent comprehensive structural, thermal, and optical characterization. Structural analyses encompassed 19F and 125Te nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), with the latter being complemented by mathematical simulations, and these findings were consistent with observations from Raman scattering. The main findings indicate an enhancement in thermal stability, modifications in the Te–O connectivity, and a reduction in emission intensity attributed to the effects of ligand polarizability and symmetry changes around Eu3+. Additionally, the fluorotellurite matrices exhibited a shift in the absorption edge toward higher energies, accompanied by a decrease in mid-IR absorptions, thereby expanding the transparency window. As a result, these glass matrices hold substantial potential for applications across various regions of the electromagnetic spectrum, including optical fiber drawing and the development of solid-state emitting materials.
