Abstract :
Barium phosphate glasses doped with varying Nd3+ ions concentration were prepared by melt quenching method and characterized through absorption and luminescence measurements. Judd-Ofelt (JO) intensity parameters were derived from the absorption spectrum of 1.0 mol % Nd2O3 -doped glass. Nd3+ ions exhibit strong near infrared luminescence at 1.06 μm (4F3/2 → 4I11/2) has been obtained for all the glasses upon 808 nm diode laser excitation. Obtained JO parameters and refractive index are used to calculate the radiative properties, such as effective bandwidth (λeff, nm), emission cross-section (σemi, cm2), radiative transition probabilities (AR, s-1) and branching ratio (βR) for the 4F3/2 →4IJ/2 (where J = 9, 11 and 13) transitions of Nd3+ ions. Among three transitions 4F3/2 → 4I11/2 shows higher value of stimulated emission cross-section and branching ratio indicates that the present glasses could be useful for the development of NIR laser at around 1.06 µm.
