Abstract

The glass formation region, crystalline phases, second harmonic (SH) generation, and Nd:yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) laser-induced crystallization in the Sm ₂O ₃-B ₂O ₃ system were clarified. The crystalline phases of Bi ₄B ₂O ₉, Bi ₃B ₅O ₁₂, BiBO ₃, Sm _xBi _1-xBO ₃, and SmB ₃O ₆ were formed through the usual crystallization in an electric furnace. The crystallized glasses consisting of BiBO ₃ and Sm _xBi ₁ _xBO ₃ showed SH generations. The formation of the nonlinear optical BiB ₃O ₆ phase was not confirmed. The formation (writing) region of crystal lines consisting of Sm _xBi _1-xBO ₃ by YAG laser irradiation was determined, in which Sm ₂O ₃ contents were ∼ 10 mol%. The present study demonstrates that Sm ₂O ₃-Bi ₂O ₃-B ₂O ₃ glasses are promising materials for optical functional applications.
