The 3.9 μm emission from Nd^(3+) ions is attributed to the two-photon absorption process. The strong emission transition at 3.9 μm fluorescence peak intensity, corresponding to the ~4G_(11/2)→~2K_(13/2) transition, is directly proportional to the NaCl concentration. With the increase of the Cl-ions amount, the mid-infrared(MIR) luminescent intensity is significantly enhanced. Additionally, the Judd-Ofelt(J-O) parameter ?_2 is larger than that of the fluorozirconate(FZ) glass, which indicates the covalency of the bond between RE ions and ligand is stronger as Cl-ions substitution of F-ions in chloride FZ glass. The X-ray diffraction(XRD) patterns show that the amorphous glassy state keeps the FZ glass network structure. In brief, the advantageous spectroscopic characteristics make the Nd^(3+)-doped FCZ glass be a promising candidate for application of 3.9 μm emission.展开更多
