Abstract

Vibrational photon echo decay in the CeO2-doped TeO 2-Nb2O5-ZnO glass is observed with near-infrared femtosecond laser pulse at the temperature of 7.5 and 300 K. The photon echo signals exhibit an initial fast decay followed by an exponential decay. The anharmonic frequency splitting (Δ), the dephasing rate (γ), the dephasing time (Td) and the linewidth (Γ) are obtained. The results show that the dephasing time of the v = 0→ 1 transition is dominated by the vibration state lifetime T11, and the dephasing time of the v = 0→ 2 transition is determined by both the vibration state lifetime T21 and the pure dephasing time T*2d.
