摘要
The frequency upconversion emissions of NaYF4 nanocrystals embedded in transparent glass ceramics codoped with Yb3+/Er3+, prepared by melt quenching and subsequent heating, were investigated. It was found that, compared with that of the sample singly doped with 0.5Er(3+), the intensities of the green and red upconversion luminescence increased by about 30 and 150 times, respectively, for the sample codoped with 0.5Er(3+)/1.0Yb(3+), attributed to the efficient energy transfer from Yb3+ with high absorption cross section to Er3+ (both of them were concentrated in the NaYF4 nanocrystals). The intense visible upconversion luminescence and the convenient, low-cost synthesis of the glass ceramic make it an excellent substitutional material for the unobtainable bulk NaYF4 crystals potentially applicable in many fields.
