“…In addition, the protective gas reduced the falling speed of the glass powder and increased the exposure time of the powder to the high temperature in the furnace. Additionally, the method isolates the glass powder from the atmosphere [93]. For some glass materials with less stringent experimental requirements, the microspheres can be formed without the use of protective gas [94].…”

Abstract:In recent years, compound glass microsphere resonator devices have attracted increasing interest and have been widely used in sensing, microsphere lasers, and nonlinear optics. Compared with traditional silica resonators, compound glass microsphere resonators have many significant and attractive properties, such as high-Q factor, an ability to achieve high rare earth ion, wide infrared transmittance and low phonon energy. This review provides a summary and a critical assessment of the fabrication and the optical characterization of compound glasses and the related fabrication and applications of compound glass microsphere resonators.

In this letter, an Nd 3+-doped compound fluorosilicate glass was successfully fabricated with the method of melt-quenching. Under the excitation of a 808 nm laser, enhanced near-infrared photoluminescence emission at the range from 1,065 to 1,140 nm was observed in the glass sample. To characterize its stability and resistance to environmental effects, transmission spectra at the range of NIR-MIR were measured under different environments, including humidity and temperature. In addition, the obtained fluorosilicate glass was also developed as a microsphere resonator by using CO 2 laser heating method. When the diameter of the microsphere was controlled at 61.5 µm, coupling with a tapered fiber, single-multimode lasing in the wavelength range λ1,056-1,071 nm was achieved with a low lasing threshold of 1.5 mW. Compared to silica and phosphate glasses, this fluorosilicate glasses have lower phonon energy, which can reduce the probability of non-radiative transitions and improve the photoluminescence efficiency. Therefore, using it as the raw material, the developed microsphere resonator offers a high transition temperature and with a low lasing threshold, which are promising it for high performance sensing and detection applications.
