Abstract

The physical, optical, and photoluminescence properties of Dy2O3-doped glasses, synthesized from sugarcane leaves using a simple melt-quenching technique, were systematically investigated in this study. Various characterization techniques such as XRD, density, refractive index, absorption spectra, FTIR, and PL spectra were employed to evaluate their properties. The absorption spectra of Dy3+-doped glasses exhibited prominent peaks at wavelengths of 451, 798, 895, 1085, 1261, and 1673 nm. Photoluminescence analysis exhibited emission and excitation spectra, with the highest peak observed at a concentration of 1.5 mol%. Additionally, the values of decay time, the CIE 1931 chromaticity, CCT, and the Y/B ratio were assessed. The findings underscore the potential of the SCDy glasses for the advancing of white-light applications
