To examine the influence of trivalent dysprosium ion (Dy3+) on physical and optical properties prepared by melt quenching method. The samples composition of 20CaSO4 (80 - x) P2O5 - xDy2O3, where x = 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5mol% were prepared and analyzed. Materials were characterized by X-ray diff...
