Er2O3 doped silica borotellurite glasses were synthesized using the melt-quenching technique with a chemical compositional formula (1 – x){(SiO2)0.2 [(B2O3)0.3 (TeO2)0.7]0.8} (Er2O3)x. Using the XRD, FTIR, UV–Vis, and photoluminescence spectroscopies, the structural, optical and spectroscopic proper...
