Concentration Dependent Improved Spectroscopic Characteristics and Near White Light Emission in Boro Phosphate Glasses Doped with Holmium
Source abstract
Abstract
The physical, structural, thermal, and optical properties of heavy metal (Ho3+) oxide incorporated lithium-boro-phosphate glass prepared utilizing melt quenching process are presented in this paper as a function of dopant concentration. To support the findings of the FTIR and DSC studies, many theoretical, experimental, physical, and optical parameters were calculated. XRD and FTIR measurements revealed the prepared glasses’ amorphous nature and the presence of significant borate functional groups. The optical band gap, Urbach energy, and steepness characteristics were tested to validate the structural results. The emission spectrums were recorded in the prepared glasses for an excitation of 450 and 550 nm to find powerful emission color. The color co-ordinates (0.33, 0.41) were found to be quite comparable to white light color co-ordinates. The present glasses can, therefore, be ideal candidates for possible applications with light-emitting diodes.
