Abstract

The invention belongs to an infrared laser material and a preparation method thereof, and particularly relates to rare earth ion doped chalcogenide gain glass and a low-temperature synthesis preparation method thereof. According to the rare earth ion doped chalcogenide gain glass and the low-temperature synthesis preparation method thereof provided by the invention, a chalcogenide glass low-temperature synthesis preparation process based on an alloy method is adopted, and the problems that the doping concentration of rare earth ions of As-S chalcogenide glass is low, the melting temperature is high, impurities exist in chalcogenide glass melt, the scattering loss in the use process is large, and the service life is long are solved. Safety risks exist in the preparation process. Ga, As, Sb and S are used as main components, any rare earth element of Dy, Tm or Er is doped, and the preparation method comprises the steps of raw material weighing, vacuum sealing, rare earth doped alloy synthesis, sulfur adding and melting, quenching and annealing and the like.
