Abstract:
Borophosphate based glass materials having rare earth, shows
promising optical photonic and biomedical applications. Here in
the current report, Ce3+ ions and AgCl are co-doped in
Borophosphate glass and new hybrid glasses with different
properties were prepared by using melt-quenching method. The
intensities of 4f intrabands transitions of rare earth ions changed
by the addition of metallic Ag nanopartciles (NPs).
Photoluminescence spectroscopy of Borophosphate glass codoped with Ce3+ ions and Ag nanoparticles revealed the dynamic
decay of Ce3+ ions due to the influence of Ag plasmonic
nanoparticles. The optical properties of these glasses were
characterized by different methods such as UV-Vis, Raman, PL
(photoluminescence), FTIR and XRD. The results show the
absorption and luminescence spectroscopy and the excited state
lifetime that gives the optical properties of the glass.
