Abstract:This study reports the synthesis and characterization of glasses in the (100-x) 65TeO2-15Li2O-20ZnO + x Sm2O3 system doped with Sm2O3, denoted as Sm3+: TLZ glasses, with varying doping concentrations from 0.1, 0.15, 0.2, 0.35, 0.5, and 1 mol%. The structural and optical properties, as well as the temperature dependence of luminescence, were investigated. Excitation at 405 nm resulted in strong orange-red luminescence at 566, 600, and 646 nm. The local environment surrounding Sm3+ ions was explored using the in… Show more
