Abstract
Present work mainly illustrates the absorbance and fluorescence characteristics of 1 mol% trivalent Samarium ions integrated BaO-ZnF2-K2O-SiO2-B2O3 glass to identify its applicability in photonic materials. With the aid of well renowned Judd Ofelt (J-O) analysis, its corresponding parameters were evaluated by using the absorbance spectrum of the prepared host matrix. Fluorescence spectrum recorded under 400 nm excitation epitomizes 4 luminescent transitions and among these the 4G5/2→6H7/2 transition (598 nm) is observed to be the intense one. Diverse radiative parameters were estimated for that intense emission transition in the Samarium ions integrated BaO+ZnF2+K2O+SiO2+B2O3 glassy system. Comparatively superior fluorescent and radiative features recommend the prepared glassy system for orange lasing applications.
