In this study, broad near-IR emission band from 1100 to 1650 nm is generated in the Bi-doped 90GeS2-10Ga2S3 glass and glass-ceramics under 820 nm of light excitation. Based on the analysis of the absorption and emission spectra, the origin of this broadband emission is ascribed to the Bi22- dimers. The precipitation of β-GeS2 nanocrystals drastically enhances the emission intensity and lifetime of Bi-doped chalcogenide glass,展开更多
