摘要
For enhancing the 2.0 μm band fluorescence of Ho^(3+), a certain amount of WO_3 oxide was introduced into Ho^(3+)/Tm^(3+)/Yb^(3+) tri-doped tellurite glass prepared using melt-quenching technique. The prepared tri-doped tellurite glass was characterized by the absorption spectra, fluorescence emission and Raman scattering spectra, together with the stimulated absorption, emission cross-sections and gain coefficient. The research results show that the introduction of WO_3 oxide can further improve the 2.0 μm band fluorescence emission through the enhanced phonon-assisted energy transfers between Ho^(3+)/Tm^(3+)/Yb^(3+) ions under the excitation of 980 nm laser diode(LD). Meanwhile, the maximum gain coefficient of Ho^(3+) at 2.0 μm band reaches about 2.36 cm^(-1). An intense 2.0 μm fluorescence emission can be realized.
