Abstract: The Er 3+ doped lead–bismuth–gallium oxide glasses were prepared by melt quenching technique. The spectral and luminescent properties were analyzed based on experimental and theoretical calculations. Analysis of Er 3+ concentration dependences of density and electronic optical polarizability was carried out. The radiative lifetime values for 4 S 3/ 2 and 4 F 9/2 energy states were calculated using Judd-Ofelt theory. In the glassy system under study, the concentration quenching of state 4 S 3/ 2 was discovered at content of erbium ions above 0.869 × 10 20 cm −3 . It was also shown that 4 F 9/2 energy state was isolated from concentration effects and showed an increase in luminescence intensity with increasing concentration of activator ions. The luminescence quantum efficiency for transition 4 S 3/ 2 → 4 I 15/2 was about 40%, which allows us to consider this system as a glassy matrix effective for activation by rare-earth ions.
