Tellurite glasses and optical components

A family of alkali-tungsten-tellurite glasses that consist essentially of, as calculated in mole percent, 10-90% TeO2, at least 5% W03 and at least 0.5% R2O where R is Li, Na, K, Cs, Tl and mixtures, that may contain a lanthanide oxide as a dopant, in particular erbium oxide, and that, when so doped...

Summary:A family of alkali-tungsten-tellurite glasses that consist essentially of, as calculated in mole percent, 10-90% TeO2, at least 5% W03 and at least 0.5% R2O where R is Li, Na, K, Cs, Tl and mixtures, that may contain a lanthanide oxide as a dopant, in particular erbium oxide, and that, when so doped, is characterized by a fluorescent emission spectrum having a relatively broad FWHM value.
