Abstract

Neonymium doped bismuth borate glasses with composition 50Bi2O3 : (50-x)B2O3: xNd2O3 (where x = 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5 mol%) have been prepared by melt quenching technique. The optical and upconversion luminescence properties of glasses were investigated. The nine absorption peaks were observed, correspond with Nd3+ energy level in glass. The optical band gap decreased with increasing Nd2O3 concentration due to the increase of non-bridging oxygen (NBOs) in glass matrix. The upconversion luminescence emission spectra shows peak at 393 nm, assign to 4D3/24I11/2 transition.
