Ternary tellurite based glasses [(TeO2)0.7 (B2O3)0.3]1-x (Bi2O3)x was prepared by melt quenching method with suitable melting and quenching temperature. A series of glasses were selected from 0.05 to 0.30 mol % and its glass-forming region was determined. The density, molar volume and refractive index increase when bismuth ions Bi3+ increase, this is due to the increased polarization of the ions Bi3+ and the enhanced formation of non-bridging oxygen (NBO). The values of optical band gap, Eopt decreases when Bi2O3 content increases. Urbach energy for each composition was also calculated and was found to be dependent on the glass composition.

Silica borotellurite glasses doped with manganese oxide with chemical formula {[(TeO2)0.7(B2O3)0.3­]0.8[SiO2]0.2}1-x{MnO2}x (where x = 0.0, 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04 and 0.05 molar fraction) were fabricated. Silica were extracted from the burning process of rice husk. Glass samples were prepared by using the melt-quenching technique. The FTIR spectra showed that the addition of MnO₂ contributed to the transformation of TeO4 to TeO3. The diffraction pattern of XRD showed a broad hump which indicates the amorphous nature of the samples. The result for both optical band gap and Urbach energy showed decreasing trend as the concentration of manganese increased.

Modifying the optical properties of rare earth doped phosphate glasses in a tunable fashion via the embedment of magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) is challenging for magneto-optic devices. Glasses with compositions (69-x)P2O5-30ZnO-1Er2O3-(x)Fe3O4, where x = 0 to 1.5 mol% are prepared by conventional melt quenching method. The Fe3O4NPs concentration dependent density, molar volume, refractive index and optical properties are determined. Density and molar volume shows strong correlation with structural alteration in the presence of NPs. The XRD spectra confirm the disordered nature of the glass and TEM micrograph display the presence of spherical NPs with average size ~26 nm. The optical band gap and Urbach energy calculated from the room temperature absorption spectra recorded in the range of 350-1700 nm reveal significant improvement. The density and refractive index increases and the molar volume decreases with the increase of Fe3O4contents. The energy band gap for direct and indirect transitions varies in the range of 4.47-3.64 eV and 4.27-3.53 eV, respectively. The Urbach energy increases from 0.15 to 0.19 eV as the NPs concentration increases from 0 to 1.5 mol%.

It was found that the diffraction patterns of all samples showed glasses characteristics. The optical band gap, Eopt¬ increased proportionally with the content of Er¬2O3 but Urbach energy, ∆E decreased due to the increasing Er2O3 contents.

The influence of substrate temperature on the UV-Visible-near-IR optical properties, namely the band gap, the Urbach energy and the refractive index of NiO thin films deposited by RF sputtering has been investigated. The optical band gap of thin films showed the blue-shift in the transmission spectra with increase in the substrate temperature which is related to variation in carrier concentration of the deposited films. Urbach energy (EU) values indicate that the films deposited at 400 oC substrate temperature show least structural disorder. The refractive index of the films is found to decrease continuously with increase in the substrate temperature at all photon energies in the visible and near-IR region, and is attributed to the decreasing packing density of the films.

Modifying the structural and optical properties of inorganic glasses via controlled doping of various rare earth ions by inhibiting the quenching effect is a challenging task. We report the influence of samarium (Sm3+) ions concentration on enhanced optical properties of tellurite glass. A series of glasses with composition (0.80-x)TeO2 + 0.10Li2O + 0.10 Na2O + xSm2O3, where 0.0<x <0.03 mol% are prepared using melt quenching method and optical characterizations are performed. The XRD spectra confirm the amorphous nature of the glass. The Urbach energy decreases and the optical gap for both direcet and indirect transitions increases with the increse of samerium contents. The UV-Vis spectra comprised of eight absorption bands and PL spectra reveal four prominet peaks corresponding to various transitions from the ground state to the excited states of Sm3+ ion. The optical response shows significant enhancement with increasing concentration of samerium ions. Our detail experimental analyses may be useful for the development of tellurite glass based photonic devices. Keywords: Tellurite Glass, Sm3+ ions, Urbach Energy, Direct and Indirect Transition.
