摘要：
High-purity samples of the new Ge36Ga5Se59 glass composition doped with 2x10(19), 5x10(19) and 10(20) cm(-3) of Pr3+ atoms were synthesized and their luminescent properties were investigated in the 1.6-7.5 mu m spectral range. The luminescence registration method involved has made it possible to separate the spectra of the overlapping transitions in Pr3+ in the 2-2.7 mu m emission band and to determine the respective lifetimes as well as their concentration dependencies. High sensitivity of the detection system has allowed to detect weak luminescence band at similar to 7.2 gm corresponding to F-3(3) -> F-3(2) transition for the first time in Pr doped glasses. The experiments showed that intense cross-relaxation processes in investigated glasses can cause a steep similar to 5 mu m emission rise with Pr(3+ )concentration increase. This effect can be of use for the design of efficient similar to 5 mu m luminescent sources with population efficiency significantly exceeding 100% (when pumped at similar to 1.5 mu m) and luminescence quantum yield close to unity.
