摘      要：The （60 - x） Bi2O3-xGeO2-30B2O3-10ZnO （x = 5, 10, 20, 30 molar percent） glasses doped with Er^3＋ and Er^3＋/Yb^3＋ were fabricated by melting method. The thermal stability of the glasses was studied by their DTA curves. The results indicate that the difference between the glass transition temperature and the crystallization onset temperature increase as increase of GeO2 content, indicating that the thermal stability of the glass becomes better. The absorption spectra were recorded. The stimulated emission cross sections were calculated by McCumber theory. The Ω2, Ω4, and Ω6 parameters, transition probability, radiative lifetime, fluorescence branch ratio of Er^3＋ for optical transition were calculated from their absorption spectra in terms of reduced matrix U^（1）（λ = 2, 4, 6） character for optical transitions. The infrared emission was measured by excitation with 970 nm light and the FWHM was estimated from their emission spectra. The pumping efficiency and the intensity of emission at the band of 1.54 μm are enhanced greatly by addition of Y2O3.
