Article Preview

Abstract:

In this research present the results of the analysis of Sm3+ ions doped bismuth borate glasses. Optical measurements such as absorption, excitation and emission profiles have been carried out. Glasses with the chemical compositions (50-x)B2O350Bi2O3xSm2O3 (x = 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.50 and 2.5 mol%) were prepared using a conventional melt-quenching method. The emission spectrum of Sm3+ doped bismuth borate glasses has shown the emission transitions of to 4G5/26H 5/2 (563 nm), 4G5/26H 7/2 (598 nm), 4G5/26H9/2 (644 nm). Energy level schemes relating to the emission mechanisms involved in Sm3+ glasses have been given.
