Abstract
The glass system 75B(2)O(3)-4.5ZnF(2)-0.5 Er2O3-(20-x) ZnO- x CeO2, x=(0. x. 1 mol.%) in this article was produced using the melt-quenching technique. Utilizing FT-IR techniques, the structural specifics of manufactured glasses are studied. The N4 and N3 fractions will be used to explore the transformation in the glass system that has been obtained. The BO3 and BO4 units coexisted in the glass composition, based on FT-IR spectra. Cerium ions appear to change trigonal BO3 units into tetrahedral BO4 units, according to preliminary FT-IR studies. The Judd-Ofelt theory is used to calculate the optical properties of the current glass that is co-doped with Er/Ce. Energy levels and line strengths of the Er3+ ion are evaluated. The current work additionally provides optical gains, emission/absorption cross-sections, and optical intensity data. The compound containing 0.6 mol% provided the greatest values for optical parameters like intensity parameters and optical gain compared to all other concentrations employed in this study.
