| Summary: | A series of potassium lead borophosphate glass doped with rare earth and transition metal ions were fabricated using melt-quenching method without annealing process. With the composition of glass 0.15K2O–0.15PbO–0.35B2O3–0.5P2O5 as host doped with 0.01 mole % of neodymium oxide, iron oxide, yttrium oxide, and titanium oxide as activator and different composition were used to investigate the luminescence effect by using Photoluminescence Spectroscopy and UV-Vis (Ultraviolet-Visible) spectrophotometer. By exciting the samples at different wavelength (200-900 nm), the excitation and emission profile were obtained and analyzed to study the energy transfer process. By referring to the spectra obtained, selected samples were also codoped among each other to obtain desired luminescence properties. UV-Visible spectroscopy results revealed the absorption and transmission wavelength of samples for targeted application as a selected band filter. Physical properties such as chemical stability and color of the samples were also recorded to correlate with PL and UV-Vis result. Certain rare earth activated samples displayed slight coloring under the visible wavelength especially Nd2+ ions doped samples displayed slight purplish. |
