英文摘要： By stabilizing the nanoparticles in the glass substrate, the problems of transition metal nanoparticles for being easily oxidized and aggregated can be solved effectively. Importantly, the nonlinear optical properties of the glass could be enhanced significantly by the magnetic Fe, Co, Ni nanoparticles. The ultrafast nonlinear optical response of the as-obtained glass could be produced under the operation of external magnetic field with low-energy laser, demonstrating the great potential applications in the all-optical switching. Therefore, the transition metal Fe, Co, Ni quantum dots glass with large third order nonlinearity will be prepared by the easy-operation and controllable sol-gel method. The microstructure and formation mechanism of these quantum dots in glass will be investigated in detail by adjusting the sizes of the nanoparticles, the doping patterns and the doping concentration. Meanwhile, the optimal parameters to combine the stability, optical properties, the response time, optical loss, and magnetic performance of the glass would be explored. The various factors which affect the third-order nonlinear optical property will be intensively discussed by the Z-scan technique, and then the third-order nonlinear mechanism of glass will be optimized. In addition, the figure of merit of quantum dots glass will also be investigated, and the relation of microstructure of transition metal quantum dots and third-order nonlinear optical properties of glass will be established. Further, it would be expected to provide the theoretical and technical support for the application in the all optical switching of the as-obtained transition metal Fe, Co, Ni quantum dots glass.
