The invention discloses ytterbium-doped fluorphosphate glass with a large emission section and a preparation method of the ytterbium-doped fluorphosphate glass. The ytterbium-doped fluorphosphate glass comprises the following components: 4-10mol% of BaO, 1-5mol% of Al2O3, 10-20mol% of P2O5, 15-25mol% of ZrF4, 12-15mol% of SrF2, 13-18mol% of BaF2 and 15-20mol% of PbF2; the total molar percentage of the components is 100mol%; and Yb2O3 is doped at 1wt%. 5-10mol% of CaF2, 5-10mol% of TeO2, 5-10mol% of Bi2O3 or 5-10mol% of Nb2O5 are added into the components of the glass. The preparation method comprises the following steps of weighing raw materials according to a formula, mixing fully and uniformly, adding to a graphite crucible, using a high frequency furnace to heat to 900-1000 DEG C quickly, keeping warm for 30min, cooling, taking out the glass, placing the glass in a muffle furnace which is heated to glass transition temperature of the glass, keeping warm for 4h, and annealing to the room temperature at a cooling rate of 10 DEG C / h. The glass has a better grain property, and the stimulated emission section is 1.29pm<2>.
