摘要:
A modified silica glass composition for providing a reduction in the multiphonon quenching for a rare-earth dopant comprising: SiO2 in a host material; a rare-earth dopant; a first SiO2 modifier; and a second SiO2 modifier; such that said first modifier and said second modifier reduce multiphonon quenching of the rare-earth dopant contained therein.
摘要:
A process of manufacturing a silica glass article comprising the steps of: (1) irradiating a silica glass article with electromagnetic waves to generate defects therein; and (2) immersing the thus irradiated silica glass article in an atmosphere comprising a hydrogen gas, thereby providing the resulting silica glass article with a characteristic that is effective for preventing it substantially from increasing its absorption within an ultraviolet region due to ultraviolet ray irradiation. Also disclosed are a silica glass article or a glass fiber produced according to the manufacturing process.
摘要:
There is disclosed second-order nonlinear glass material wherein a part having second-order nonlinearity contain Ge, H and OH and second-order nonlinear optical constant d of 1 pm/V or more, and a method for producing second-order nonliner glass material comprising treating a porous class material containing Ge with hydrohen, sintering it and subjecting it to a ultraviolet poling treatment. There can be provided second-order nonlinger glass material having second-order nonlinearity which is a sufficiently high and has a sufficiently long lifetime for a practical purpose, in use of the glass material for optical elements or the like.
