Abstract
Calcium fluoroborate (CFB) glasses doped with different concentrations of trivalent dysprosium ions were prepared and investigated by the FTIR, optical absorption, photoluminescence and decay analysis. Free-ion Hamiltonian model and Judd-Ofelt theory have been used to analyze the energy level scheme and the spectral intensities of Dy3+ ions in CFB glasses. From the emission spectra it is observed that the samples emit intense light yellowish color which is nearer to white light. Chromaticity color coordinates have been calculated and the dominant emission wavelength has also been indicated. Decay curves of 4F9/2 level for the samples with different concentrations have been analyzed using the Inokuti-Hirayama model and the energy transfer and non-radiative decay rates have been determined.
