摘要
WO_3 oxides with relatively high phonon energy and different concentrations were introduced into the Nd^(3+)-doped tellurite-based glasses of Te O_2-Zn O-Na_2 O to improve the 1.32 μm band fluorescence emission. The absorption spectra,Raman spectra,1.32 μm band fluorescence spectra and differential scanning calorimeter(DSC) curves were measured,together with the Judd-Ofelt intensity parameters,stimulated emission and gain parameters were calculated to evaluate the effects of WO_3 amount on the glass structure and spectroscopic properties of 1.32 μm band fluorescence. It is shown that the introduction of an appropriate amount of WO_3 oxide can effectively improve the 1.32 μm band fluorescence intensity through the enhanced multi-phonon relaxation(MPR) processes between the excited levels of Nd^(3+). The results indicate that the prepared Nd^(3+)-doped tellurite glass with an appropriate amount of WO_3 oxide is a potential gain medium applied for the O-band broad and high-gain fiber amplifier.
