In this work, properties of Nd3+ in Gd2O3-CaO-SiO2-B2O3 glass systems with composition 25Gd2O3-10CaO-10SiO2-(55-x)B2O3-xNd2O3 where x = 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5 mol% were investigated. The optical absorption spectra show peaks at 4F3/2 (877 nm) , 4F5/2+2H9/2 (802 nm), 4F7/2+4S3/2 (743 nm), 4F9/2 (682 nm), 2H11/2 (627 nm), 2G7/2 +4G5/2 (582 nm), 4G7/2 +2K13/2 (527 nm), 4G11/2 (481 nm), 2P1/2 (427 nm) and 2L15/2 + 4D1/2 + 1I11/2+ 4D5/2+ 4D3/2 (355 nm) reflecting the Nd3+ ions in glass matrices. The densities were increased with increasing of Nd2O3 concentration. This indicates the increase of the molecular weight by the replacement of B2O3 with a heavier Nd2O3 oxide in the glass. The upconversion luminescence spectra show bands at 393 nm for all Nd2O3 concentration and the strongest intensity from 2.5 % mol of Nd2O3 was obtained. For NIR luminescence, the intensity of Nd3+ emission spectra increases with increasing concentrations of Nd3+ up to 1.5 mol% and beyond 1.5 mol% the concentration quenching is observed.

Er3+-doped bismuth borosilicate glasses (Bi2O3+B2O3+SiO2+Er2O3) glasses doped with different Er2O3 concentrations (0, 0.50, 1.00, 1.50, 2.00, 2.50 mol%) have been prepared by melt quenching technique and their physical, optical and luminescence properties have been studied. The density of glasses showed the highest value at 4.7358 g/cm3 with 1.00 mol% of Er2O3. The optical absorption spectra of glasses were observed seven bands at 488, 523, 543, 654, 801, 975 and 1529 nm which assigned to the transitions 4I15/2→4F7/2, 2H11/2, 4S3/2, 4F9/2, 4I9/2, 4I11/2 and 4I13/2, respectively. The emission spectra of glasses were also investigated and discussed in term of energy level of Er3+ ion in glass matrices.

The samarium-doped lithium-gadolinium borate [60Li2O:10Gd2O3:(30-x) B2O3:xSm2O3] (LGBO:Sm3+) glasses have been melted and quenched in stainless plate under an air atmosphere. Some physical and optical properties within wavelength concerned and photoluminescence of the LGBO:Sm3+glasses were measured and discussed. The density of glasses dropped until 0.10 mol% and tends to increase after that point, while molar volume of the glasses tends to increase with concentration of Sm2O3.. In absorption spectra, there are 2 obvious peaks in UV-VIS range and 6 peaks in NIR range indicating the Sm3+in glass matrices. The sharpness of a peak, in the absorption spectra, also increases with concentration of the dopant. The 7 obvious peaks in excitation spectra represent the transitions from the ground state6H5/2to various excited states. Furthermore, The emission spectra were observed under 404 nm light from the Xenon compact arc lamps, and showed the concentration quenching effect (CQE) at 1.00 mol% of Sm3+. Additional, The lifetimes showed decreasing trend with concentration of Sm2O3.. As the result, The LGBO:Sm3+glass doped with 1.00 mol% of Sm3+gives the highest result for luminescence properties.

In this work, effects of Ni2+ ions on soda lime silicate glasses have been investigated. Glasses were prepared in formula (65-x)SiO2 : 25Na2O : 10CaO: xNiO (where x is 0.00, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06, 0.08 and 0.10 mol%). The densities of glasses not depend on Ni2+ concentration. The refractive indices decreased with increasing of NiO concentration. The optical absorption spectra were measured by uv-visible spectrophotometer and show peaks correspond with Ni2+ in glass matrices. Both of octahedral transitions and tetrahedral transition from Ni2+ ion were found around 450 and 625 nm respectively. The color of glasses were also measured in CIE L* a* b* system.

In this work, effects of CoO on silicoborate glasses have been investigated. Glasses were prepared in formula (53-x)B2O3:11SiO2:32SrO:1Bi2O3:1TiO2: xCoO (where x is 0.00, 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04 and 0.05 mol%).

Lutetuim calcium silico borates (LuCaSiB) glasses doped with Nd3+ ions with molar composition of Lu2O3-CaO-SiO2-B2O3-Nd2O3 have been prepared by conventional melt quenching technique. Their properties have been evaluated throughout the density, refractive index, absorption and emission measurements.

AbstractThe photoluminescence properties of thiophene-based polymers obtained by the random copolymerization of 3,4-dibutylthiophene and 3-butylthiophene are reported. Optical absorption spectra, cw photolumninescence (PL) spectra, PL quantum efficiencies and PL decays have been measured in dilute solutions. By varying the copolymer chemical composition it is possible to tune the intensity and the color of the luminescence spectra in the whole visible range. We evidence the role of disorder, controlled by interring rotations, as the tuning factor for the disexcitation pathway of the photoexcitations in these materials.
