We have investigated the spectroscopic properties of Bi2O3–B2O3 glasses doped with Nd3+ and Yb3+ separately, and doubly doped with the same ions, in order to search for appropriate phosphors for an optical coherence tomography (OCT) light source. The effects of Yb3+ and Nd3+ co-doping and varying Yb3+ concentration on the spectrum shape were studied to obtain an optimum line shape for OCT. We successfully obtained a Gaussian-like shape spectrum from 5.0Yb2O3–1.0Nd2O3–46.0Bi2O3–46.0B2O3 (in nominal molar composition) with a full-width-at-half-maximum (FWHM) of 101 nm in the wavelength region around 1000 nm. This FWHM corresponds to a depth resolution of 4.5 μm, which is about twice that of conventional light emitting diodes (LEDs) and super luminescent diodes (SLDs). The Gaussian-like line shape is very important to suppress ghost images in OCT. These results indicate that a Yb3+, Nd3+ co-doped Bi2O3–B2O3 glass phosphor can indeed be applied as a new type of OCT light source.
