摘要
Precursor glass of composition 25K(2)O-25Nb(2)O(5)-50SiO(2) (mol%) doped with Er(2)O(3) (0.5 wt% in excess) was isothermally crystallized at 800 degrees C for 0-100 h to obtain transparent KNbO(3) nanostructured glass-ceramics. XRD, FESEM, TEM, FTIRRS, dielectric constant, refractive index, absorption and fluorescence measurements were carried out to analyze the morphology, dielectric, structure and optical properties of the glass-ceramics. The crystallite size of KNbO(3) estimated from XRD and TEM is found to vary in the range 7-23 nm. A steep rise in the dielectric constant of glass-ceramics with heat-treatment time reveals the formation of ferroelectric nanocrystalline KNbO(3) phase. The measured visible photoluminescence spectra have exhibited green emission transitions of (2)H(11/2), (4)S(3/2)-->(4)I(15/2) upon excitation at 377 nm ((4)I(15/2)-->(4)G(11/2)) absorption band of Er(3+) ions. The near infrared (NIR) emission transition (4)I(13/2)-->(4)I(15/2) is detected around 1550 nm on excitation at 980 nm ((4)I(15/2)-->(4)I(11/2)) of absorption bands of Er(3+) ions. It is observed that photoluminescent intensity at 526 nm ((2)H(11/2)-->(4)I(15/2)), 550 nm ((4)S(3/2)-->(4)I(15/2)) and 1550 nm ((4)I(13/2)-->(4)I(15/2)) initially decrease and then gradually increase with increase in heat-treatment time. The measured lifetime (tau(f)) of the (4)I(13/2)-->(4)I(15/2) transition also possesses a similar trend. The measured absorption and fluorescence spectra reveal that the Er(3+) ions gradually enter into the KNbO(3) nanocrystals.Copyright 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
