Abstract

Absorption bands of Ho3+ in vitreous La2S3·3Ga2S3 in the range 500 to 2000 nm were assigned. Excitation spectra reveal additional levels 5G6 and 5F3 obscured by the intrinsic absorption of the glass. The Ho3+ emission in chalcogenide glasses is more intense than in oxide glasses due to smaller non radiative relaxation as predicted by the theory of multiphonon relaxation.
