Structural and luminescence study of rare earth and transition metal ions doped lead zinc borophosphate glasses
A series of glasses with composition of xPbO-(50-x)ZnO-yB2O3-(50-y)P2O5 with 0 x 50 mol% and 10 y 20 mol% were prepared by melt quenching technique, with 30 minutes pre-heating and 10 minutes for melting. The structural properties of prepared samples were studied using Fourier Transform-Infrared spe...

| Summary: | A series of glasses with composition of xPbO-(50-x)ZnO-yB2O3-(50-y)P2O5 with 0 x 50 mol% and 10 y 20 mol% were prepared by melt quenching technique, with 30 minutes pre-heating and 10 minutes for melting. The structural properties of prepared samples were studied using Fourier Transform-Infrared spectroscopy. The glasses were mainly based on PO2, BOP and BO3 unit. In order to obtain luminescence properties, another series of sample at composition 20PbO-30ZnO-10B2O3-40P2O5 doped with Fe2+, Ti2+, Y2+ and Nd2+ were prepared. These samples were investigated using Photoluminescence Spectroscopy with different excitation wavelength to compare results. Results showed that with the presence of rare earth and transition metal ions as activator in lead zinc borophosphate glass system give rise to luminescence of visible light. |
