摘要
Doping of arsenic sulfide with small amounts of germanium and gallium can be used to improve the rare-earth ion solubility, whereby optical and thermal properties are modified. Here the influence of germanium and gallium on refractive index, fluorescence and glass transition temperature is systematically studied and discussed. It is shown that material properties suitable for variable lightguide structures can be tailored. In addition, we present our studies of properties of lead germanate glasses. Variations of the matrix composition were made and the effects in glass transition temperature, crystallization behaviour, refractive index, solubility of rare earths and UV-VIS-IR transmission were studied. Reducing the lead content and partial substitution of oxides by fluorides causes a shift of the optical bandgap of bulk material. First fluorescence investigations on Tm3+ and Yb3+ doped lead germanate glasses show blue, red and infrared emission under 980 nm excitation.
