Abstract

ABSTRACT Transparent oxyfluoride glass‐ceramics combining broad ultraviolet‐to‐mid‐infrared transmission with enhanced rare‐earth luminescence are promising materials for mid‐infrared photonic applications. In this work, erbium‐doped indium‐germanate oxyfluoride glasses exhibiting good glass‐forming ability under conventional melt–quenching conditions were synthesized and converted into transparent glass‐ceramics through controlled heat treatment near the glass transition temperature. All compositions exhibit weak hydroxyl absorption (
