“…In view of the above facts/importance, it has been essential to see the alternative process to get the visible laser output with high quantum efficiency. Oxide glasses activated by Tb 3+ have demonstrated to be attractive candidates for gain media in the green region around 546 nm, since the 5 D 4 → 7 F 5 transition of Tb 3+ ion provides a four-level laser system with a lower threshold pump power compared with that of Er 3+ ions [3][4][5][6][7]. Moreover, experimental branching ratios of the 546 nm band are usually more than 50%, which makes the Tb 3+ a promising ion for green laser applications.…”

Tb 3+-doped fluorophosphate glasses with the composition of P 2 O 5-K 2 O-SrF 2-Al 2 O 3-x Tb 4 O 7 (where x = 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 and 4.0 mol%) were prepared by a conventional high temperature melt quenching technique and characterized through absorption, emission, excitation and decay measurements. From the emission studies, a strong green emission at around 546 was observed, which corresponds to the 5 D 4 → 7 F 5 transition of Tb 3+ ion. Green/blue intensity ratios (I G /I B) were evaluated as a function of Tb 3+ concentration and vice versa. Higher I G /I B intensity ratio confirms the higher covalency between Tb-O bond and higher asymmetry around the Tb 3+ ions in the present fluorophosphate glasses. The decay curves for the 5 D 4 level of Tb 3+ ion were measured and found that they exhibited single exponential nature irrespective to the dopant concentration. The experimental lifetime was determined using single exponential fitting and found that it increased from 2.65 to 2.95 ms when Tb 3+ concentration increased from 0.1 mol% to 4.0 mol%. The derived properties were compared to the other Tb 3+-doped glasses in order to see the potentiality of the material for visible laser gain media at 546 nm.

“…Recently, an increasing number of studies have focused on the associations between the rare earth ions and their host materials, and how these interactions affect the optical properties of interest for particular applications. In the present work, in order to observe the rare‐earth–host interactions and to determine how to modify the photoluminescence (PL) intensity, borosilicate glasses modified with an alkali oxide (LiO 2 /Na 2 O/K 2 O) and combinations of these alkali oxides were selected and doped with the ions of two rare earth elements: Tb 3+ and Sm 3+ …”

Four series of borosilicate glasses modified by alkali oxides and doped with Tb and Sm ions were prepared using the conventional melt quenching technique, with the chemical composition 74.5B O + 10SiO + 5MgO + R + 0.5(Tb O /Sm O ) [where R = 10(Li O /Na O/K O) for series A and C, and R = 5(Li O + Na O/Li O + K O/K O + Na O) for series B and D]. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of all the prepared glasses indicate their amorphous nature. The spectroscopic properties of the prepared glasses were studied by optical absorption analysis, photoluminescence excitation (PLE) and photoluminescence (PL) analysis. A green emission corresponding to the D → F (543 nm) transition of the Tb ions was registered under excitation at 379 nm for series A and B glasses. The emission spectra of the Sm ions with the series C and D glasses showed strong reddish-orange emission at 600 nm ( G → H ) with an excitation wavelength λ = 404 nm ( H → F ). Furthermore, the change in the luminescence intensity with the addition of an alkali oxide and combinations of these alkali oxides to borosilicate glasses doped with Tb and Sm ions was studied to optimize the potential alkali-oxide-modified borosilicate glass.

Here, we report the synthesis and study of new orange‐red (OR) colour‐emitting phosphors Na2ZnP2O7:xTb3+ (x = 1, 1.25, 1.5, and 1.75 mol%) using a conventional solid‐state reaction. The sample crystallographic structures and their room temperature photoluminescence properties were measured using X‐ray powder diffraction, excitation and emission spectra, as well as emission decay curves. X‐ray diffraction analysis showed an isostructural tetragonal structure for all the doped materials with no impurities. Several colour emissions corresponding to 5D4→7F6 (blue), 5D4→7F5 (green), 5D4→7F4 (orange) and 5D4→7F3,2,0 (red) intraconfigurational transitions were observed and investigated. These colours were dominated by the OR colours. 5D4 energy level lifetime was independent of Tb3+ concentration. Various radiative and luminescence parameters, such as experimental branching ratio, radiative decay rate, and luminescence quantum efficiencies, were calculated and discussed. Chromaticity diagram calculations illustrated an orange emission for all the studied materials.
