Li2O-BaO-Al2O3-La2O3-P2O5 glasses optically activated with rare earth ions with the 4f(5), and 4f(8) electronic configuration (Sm3+ and Tb3+, respectively) were analyzed by Raman spectroscopy, absorption, excitation photoluminescence, decay curves and temperature dependent photoluminescence. The spectroscopic characteristics of the as-prepared and heat treated samples at temperatures below and above T-g were studied as well as their room temperature photometric properties under ultraviolet excitation. All the doped glasses exhibit typical signatures of the lanthanides in their trivalent charge state. For the samarium doped glass heat treated at 250 degrees C ( H-6(7/2) and D-5(3) -> F-7(4) transitions of the Sm3+ and Tb3+ ions, respectively. The results strongly suggest the occurrence of energy transfer processes through cross relaxation phenomena, mediated by dipole-dipole interaction in all the studied samples. The decay of the D-5(4) -> F-7(5) emission of the Tb3+ ions was found to be single exponential with a time constant of similar to 3.1 ms. Based on the spectroscopic characteristics, models for recombination processes are proposed. The room temperature luminance photometric properties with ultraviolet excitation show that the samarium doped glasses have much lower luminance intensity (around 0.3 Cd/m(2)) when compared with the 6-7 Cd/m(2) observed for the terbium doped ones.
