用熔融急冷法制备了系列Ho^3+/Tm^3+共掺的78GeS2-12Ga2S3-10CsI玻璃样品,测试了样品的吸收光谱以及808 nm激光泵浦下的2μm中红外荧光光谱。用Judd-Ofelt理论计算了Ho^3+离子在78GeS2-12Ga2S3-10CsI硫卤玻璃中的强度参数Ωi(i=2,4,6)、自发辐射跃迁概率Arad和辐射寿命rτ等光谱参数,以及Ho^3+离子在2μm处的吸收截面aσ、发射截面eσ和增益系数G(λ)。讨论了808 nm激光泵浦下的样品中红外荧光特性与Tm^3+离子掺杂浓度之间的关系,分析了Tm^3+和Ho^3+之间的能量转移机制。结果表明,Ho^3+/Tm^3+共掺的78GeS2-12Ga2S3-10CsI玻璃是一种理想的2μm激光基质材料。
A serial of chalcogenide glasses based on 78GeS2-12Ga2S3-10CsI(in molar%) system doped with the different radios of Ho^3+/Tm^3+ ions were synthesized by melt-quenching method.Their absorption spectra and mid-infrared fluorescence under 808 nm laser excitation were measured.According to Judd-Ofelt theory,the intensity parameters Ωi(i=2,4,6),spontaneous transition probabilities Arad and radiative lifetomes τr for Ho^3+ ion were calculated.Absorption cross-sections σa,emission crosssections σe and gain coefficient G(λ) corresponding to the emission of Ho^3+ ions at 2.0 μm were obtained.By changing the Tm^3+ concentration,the energy transfer regime of Tm^3+ and Ho^3+ ions under 808 nm excitation was investigated.The results show that Ho^3+/Tm^3+-codoped Ge-Ga-S-CsI glasses would be a potential material for 2.0 μm emission.
