  • Abstract
    In this work, the synthesis and optical properties of Er3+-doped LiYF4-bisphenol A ethoxylate diacrylates (BPAEDA) nanocomposite is reported. The polymer BPAEDA showed broad transparency range centered at 1550 nm which is confirmed by the absorption spectrum. Under the excitation of a 978 nm laser, the optically transparent Er3+-doped LiYF4-BPAEDA nanocomposite showed intense and broad emissions in S+C+L band.
