ABSTRACTRare earth ions can easily be incorporated into fluoride glasses in moderate to large concentrations and, due to their low phonon energy, these glasses appear to have many advantages over oxide glasses as hosts for rare earth ions used in optical amplifiers and lasers. We have therefore investigated the optical properties of Pr3+, Pr3+/Yb3+ and Pr3+/Yb3+/Lu3+ doped bulk AIF3-based glass samples as a function of rare earth ion concentration. We find that the addition of 2 wt% of Yb increases the fluorescence of Pr3+ at 1.32 μm by a factor of 35 when excited with 488 nm radiation. The fluorescence intensity and excited state lifetimes are found to be comparable to those measured for Pr in a ZBLAN host. Since it has also been demonstrated that optical fibers drawn from AIF3-based glasses exhibit relatively low loss (< 0.05 dB/m) and posses superior chemical durability compared to other fluotide glasses, it is possible that AIF3 glasses may become the fluoride glass of choice for practical fiber laser and amplifier applications.

When Eu3+ and Tb3+ ions are co-doped into the ZBH matrix, the phosphor yielded tunable emissions. The concentration of rare earth doped can change the composition and further change the morphology and the luminescence properties.
