Abstract:The direct laser writing (DLW) of photoluminescent metal clusters is inspiring intensive research in functional glasses. However, the impact of the host structure on cluster formation and visualization of DLW-induced clusters at the atomic scale remains challenging. In this work, we developed a highly photosensitive fluorophosphate glass matrix through fluorine incorporation. The addition of fluorine established a conducive environment for Ag+ ions before DLW and enhanced the availability of reducing agents an… Show more
