Transmission And Absorption Spectra Of Aluminophosphate-Doped Glasses With Rare-Earth Ions

Aluminophosphate glasses doped with rare-earth ions have recently attracted a large interest owing to their relevant non-linear optical properties. Unitl now, all studies were done over the glasses doped with rare earth ions, in which the rare earth ions were into a vitreous silica matrix. This study was made as for rare earth ions (Sm3-, Dy3+, Ce3+ or Ce4+ and Eu3+) into a vitreous aluminophosphate matrix.
