摘要

Glasses with the composition of (99.5-chi)GeO2-chiWO(3)-0.5Bi2O3 (chi=3, 6, 9 mol%) and (99.5-psi)GeO2-psiBaO-0.5Bi2O3 (psi=3, 6, 9 mol%) were prepared. Their thermal, emission and absorption measurements were carried out. The near-infrared super broadband emission of the prepared samples peak around 1.3 microm was discovered. The results indicated, in GeO2-WO3-Bi2O3 glasses, increasing amount of WO3 brought about the broadening of FWHM, prolonging of lifetime and enhancing of thermal stabilities. While in GeO2-BaO-Bi2O3 glasses, concomitant with the increasing amount of BaO were the broadened FWHM as well as the prolonged lifetime. Red-shift tendency of absorption edges was discovered in both two groups of glasses indicating the Bi5+ ions might take responsibility for the broadband emission.
