Response of Various Yb³⁺-Doped Oxide Glasses to Different Radiation Treatments.

ABSTRACT: The radiation effects of electrons and protons on the spectroscopic and optical properties of oxide glasses doped with Yb³⁺ in various glass systems were investigated to understand the impact of the glass composition on the glass photo-response. Changes in the optical and emission properties were seen after the radiation treatment, and the magnitude of the changes depended on the irradiation source and dose. For all the investigated materials, the absorption coefficients in the 200-550 nm range increase post-irradiation, revealing the formation of defects in the glasses during the irradiation. While the spectroscopic properties of the tellurite glass remain unchanged, a small reduction in the Yb³⁺ emission intensity was seen after irradiating the phosphate, borosilica
