Abstract
In this work we report on the use of thermal lens spectrometry to determine the temperature dependence of the thermo-optical properties, namely, therm al conductivity, thermal diffusivity, temperature coefficient of optical pa th length change and fluorescence quantum efficiency of ZBLAN and Nd2O3-dop ed low silica calcium aluminosilicate glasses. The results indicates that t his technique can be used for the complete characterization of the thermo-o ptical properties of optical glasses as a function of temperature.
