Spectroscopy of titanium-doped gallium lanthanum sulfide glass
Titanium-doped gallium lanthanum sulfide (Ti:GLS) and gallium lanthanum oxysulfide (Ti:GLSO) glasses have an absorption band at ~500-600 nm that cannot be fully resolved because of its proximity to the band edge of the glass. At concentrations >0.5% a shoulder at 980 nm is observed in Ti:GLS but not in Ti:GLSO. The emission spectra of Ti:GLS and Ti:GLSO both peak at 900 nm with lifetimes of 67 and 97 µs, respectively. We propose that the absorption at 600 nm is due to the 2T2g to 2Eg transition of octahedral Ti3+ and the 980 nm shoulder is due to Ti3+-Ti4+ pairs.

Abstract
Titanium-doped gallium lanthanum sulfide (Ti:GLS) and gallium lanthanum oxysulfide (Ti:GLSO) glasses have an absorption band at ~500-600 nm that cannot be fully resolved because of its proximity to the band edge of the glass. At concentrations >0.5% a shoulder at 980 nm is observed in Ti:GLS but not in Ti:GLSO. The emission spectra of Ti:GLS and Ti:GLSO both peak at 900 nm with lifetimes of 67 and 97 µs, respectively. We propose that the absorption at 600 nm is due to the 2T2g to 2Eg transition of octahedral Ti3+ and the 980 nm shoulder is due to Ti3+-Ti4+ pairs.
