摘要
We have previously reported a fabrication method for incorporating up to 3 wt% rare-earth ions in a silica matrix and discussed some of the optical properties. In this paper we report the extension of this method to fabricate fibre, doped with up to 15 wt% Nd3+ in a SiO2-Al2O3-P2O5 host glass and discuss the fluorescence lifetime results and for the first time directly relate these to the structure of the fibre core material. Time-resolved fluorescence spectra and structural analysis show that phase separation results only when Nd3+ concentrations exceed 7 wt%.
