Visible Luminescence of Eu³⁺ Ions in Lithium Barium Borate Glass

Abstract:

Europium doped lithium barium borate glasses were fabricated by conventional melt-quench method and were analyzed their physical, optical and luminescence properties through absorption, excitation, emission and decay analysis at room temperature. The experimental data revealed that the five discrete absorption bands peaking at 393, 464, 532, 2032 and 2212 nm due to the transitions from ⁷F₀ ground state level to various excited states of Eu³⁺ ions. The luminescence of Eu³⁺ in visible bands were observed under 394 nm pumping.
