Absorption spectra of neodymium doped tellurite glass
Modifying the optical and structural properties of tellurite glasses by controlling rare earth doping is an important issue. Neodymium doped magnesium-tellurite glasses of composition TeO2-MgO-Na2O with concentration from 0.5 to 2.5 mol% were synthesized by conventional meltquenching technique. The...
