摘 要:Tellurite glasses with the composition of xTm2O3-(6-x)Y2O3-3Na2O-25ZnO-66TeO2(where 0≤x≤6)were obtained by the melt-quenching technique.Absorption(300 K),excitation(300 K) and fluorescence spectra(300 K) as well as fluorescence decay curves of Tm3+-doped title glasses are presented and discussed in details.The Judd-Ofelt analysis based on the room temperature absorption spectrum was applied for determination of fundamental fluorescence properties such as radiative transition probabilities(AT),branching ratios(βR),radiative lifetimes(τR) of the emitting levels of the Tm3+ ion and stimulated emission cross-sections(σem).Fluorescence spectra were recorded and analysed in the visible and near-infrared spectral range.The emission and effective cross-section were calculated for the 3F4→3H6 transition,showing that the investigated glasses are promising laser host materials,operating at 1.8 μm.The observed concentration quenching and non-exponential decay curves from the 1 G4 and 3H4 states indicate nonradiative energy transfer between Tm3+ ions.The analysis of non-exponential fluorescence decay curves from the 1 G4 and 3H4 levels was carried out in framework of the InokutiHirayama and Yokota-Tanimoto models and energy transfer microparameters were determined.The self-quenching model was proposed for describing relaxation of the first excited state of the Tm3+ ion.
