The Pr3+ 1G4 excited state lifetime has been measured in a mixed halide glass to be 2.7 times longer than the lifetime in a fluorozirconate host. The longer lifetime denotes a comparable reduction in the nonradiative decay rate.

SOLUTION: A high power laser 6' allocated in a high-power laser seal-up vessel 10 is fixed to a substrate 2, while a waveguide fiber 4 which combined laser light to a photo-detecting device provided, and a getter 8 is stuck to the inside surface at upper part of the seal-up vessel 10 as a thin slab. The material of the getter 8 is inorganic binder, an arbitrary one among zeolite types, etc., which have such bore size or channel size as suitable for immobilizing water, a couple of these compounds, porous silica, etc., comprising such bore size or channel size as immobilizing large organic molecule, and couple of compounds. These are consolidated to obtain a porous body.

CONSTITUTION: The salt of a dopant (for example, germanium, phosphor, fluorine, and bromine) is dissolved in organic solvent (ketone, acetone or the like) without any OH group. A porous glass preform 32 having interconnective micropores is immersed into this solvent 33, and then the solvent is removed. Next, the preform 32 to which this dopant is dispersed is heat treated and consolidated for forming a non-porous glassy body at least one part of which the dopant is dispersed on. Thus, the 0H containing solvent which is likely to cause crack and/or flaking on the outer surface of the preform 32 after a drying process is not used so that the undamaged surface of the glassy body can be formed.

Research paper thumbnail of Evaluation of Higher Efficiency Pr3+ Host Glasses for 1300 nm Amplification

High gain amplification has been demonstrated at 1310 nm with a Pr-doped fluorozirconate fiber [1... more High gain amplification has been demonstrated at 1310 nm with a Pr-doped fluorozirconate fiber [1], but with a much lower pump efficiency than a comparable Er-doped silica amplifier at 1550 nm. This low pump efficiency is attributable to the low quantum efficiency of the lG4->3H5 transition of Pr3+ [2], which follows from the preponderance of multiphonon mediated decay from the 1G4 to the nearby 3F4 level. The probability of multiphonon decay between two energy levels is inversely related to the number of phonons required to bridge the energy gap. Therefore, the lowering of this probability and an improvement in the quantum efficiency would be expected through the use of a host material with lower phonon energies. In addition, an improvement in the quantum efficiency also would be expected in those materials with larger lG4->3H5 radiative rates. Over the last year a number of potentially more efficient host glasses have been reported [3,4,5,7]. Here we consider two of these, t...

The reactions are interpreted as occurring by initial hydrogen abstraction from the amine by the excited ketone, to give radicals of the amines which subsequently react with oxygen to give the observed products.

Research paper thumbnail of The photoreaction of aromatic carbonyl compounds with amines: evidence for electron transfer from tertiary aromatic amines to triplet benzophenone

Journal of the Chemical Society, Perkin Transactions 2, 1972

Triphenylamine and tri-p-tolylamine quench the photoreduction of benzophenone by diphenylmethanol... more Triphenylamine and tri-p-tolylamine quench the photoreduction of benzophenone by diphenylmethanol and in the case of triphenylamine, the quenching effect is substantially increased by a change of solvent from benzene to acetonitrile. Flash photolysis of nitrogen-flushed acetonitrile solutions of tri-p-tolylamine containing benzo-phenone, produced the amine radical cation and the radical anion of the ketone. When oxygenated solutions of either the amine alone of amine plus benzophenone were flash-photolysed, only the radical cation of the amine was observed. The lifetime and concentration of the radical cation is increased as the concentration either of oxygen or of benzophenone is increased. One of the modes of decay of the radical cation appears to be reaction with tri-p-tolylamine and a rate constant of 3·5 × 103 l mol–1 s–1 was determined for this process. Nitrogen-flushed acetonitrile solutions of triphenylamine gave, on flash photolysis, an intermediate (λmax. 610 nm) identified, from previous work, as cyclisation product, whereas when benzophenone is present in solution, the amine radical cation is produced. These results support the conclusion that tertiary aromatic amines can donate an electron to triplet benzophenone, and lend some credence to the previous postulate that amines react with triplet ketones by an electron-transfer process.

Aliphatic amines gave aldehydes and imines, whereas N-alkylanilines were dealkylated but did not give imines. Amines which are known physical quenchers of singlet oxygen were efficiently oxidised. The reactivity of these compounds, and the type of products formed in the reaction, are explainable in terms of a mechanism in which hydrogen atom abstraction from the amine by triplet ketone is the primary chemical reaction. The results are not in accord with the participation of singlet oxygen. Quantum yield measurements of oxygen uptake, amine disappearance, and product formation are consistent with the proposed mechanism.
