The luminescence, lasing and sensing properties of rare earth (RE) ions have drawn much interest among researchers. We have focussed on the physical and optical properties of Li2O–K2O–B2O3 (LKB) with different concentrations of dysprosium (Dy3+) ions. The glass samples were prepared using melt quenc...
