  • Abstract
    In the present investigation the authors have shown that spectrally identical NIR emitting centers can be formed in Bi doped phosphate glasses either by high-temperature melting or by room-temperature γ-irradiation. The paper illustrates this statement by comparing the 1.05-1.2 μm emission excitation spectra in high-temperature melted and in γ-irradiated low-temperature melted glass samples of identical composition. The latter sample exhibited no NIR emission before γ-irradiation.
