Abstract

This study explores a series of optical, thermal, and structural properties based on zinc-aluminum phosphate glasses that doped with varied rare earth (RE) elements Yb 2O 3 and P 2O 5 components replaced by SiO 2. It was found that for 60P glasses system, 7 mol% Yb 2O 3 doped has the maximum fluorescence but quenching when Yb 2O 3 is doped up to 9 mol%. In addition, with increasing the content of Yb 2O 3 the absorption intensity increased. According to Raman spectra, we found the Yb 3+ and Si 4+ ions for the impact of network structure of glass, SiO 2 added to make the network structure of phosphate glasses at 450-500cm -1 and 600-650cm -1 were formed O-T-O bond and T-O-T bond(T=Si, Al).
