Abstract
- Abstract: We report on the effect of various alkaline-earth metal oxides on the broadband infrared luminescence covering 1000–1600 nm wavelength region from bismuth-doped silicate glasses. The full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the infrared luminescence and the fluorescent lifetime is more than 200 nm and 400 μs, respectively. The fluorescent intensity decreases with increasing basicity of host glasses. Besides the broadband infrared luminescence, luminescence centered at 640 nm was also observed, which should be ascribed to Bi2+ rather than to the familiar Bi3+. We suggest that the infrared luminescence should be assigned to the transition of BiO molecules dispersed in the host glasses. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
