Spectral characteristics of Pr3+-doped lead based phosphate glasses for optical display device applications

The present work concentrates on spectral analysis of Pr3+:lead phosphate (PPbKANPr) glasses for visible lasers and optical amplifier applications and these glasses were prepared by a melt-cast technique. Vibrational modes of PPbKANPr glasses have been analyzed through FTIR and Raman techniques. Based on the absorption spectrum and the renowned Judd-Ofelt (JO) formalism, the three JO parameters (Ω2,4,6) were calculated and then used to estimate...
