摘要
Ho3+-Yb3+ co-doped bismuth titanate ferroelectric thin films were prepared by a chemical solution deposition method on fused silica substrates and their up-conversion luminescence characteristics excited by a 980 nm diode laser were investigated. The two emission bands centered at 546 and 656 nm in the emission spectra can be assigned to F-5(4) + S-5(2) -> I-5(8) and F-5(5) -> I-5(8) transitions of Ho3+ ions, respectively. A bright green emission was observed even when the laser pumping power was relatively low. The dependence of the emission intensity on the pumping power indicated that the up-conversion emission in the thin films was a two-photon process. The up-conversion emission mechanism is discussed in detail. This study suggests that Ho3+ and Yb3+ co-doped Bi4Ti3O12 thin films can be applied to the fabrication of new multifunctional photoluminescence ferroelectric thin-film devices.
