摘要
The Er3+-Yb3+-Li+ codoped TiO2 powders have been prepared by sol-gel method. The strong enhancement of green and red upconversion emissions were obtained for Er3+-Yb3+ codoped TiO2 by additional Li+ codoping and investigated using 976 nm semiconductor laser diode excitation. The enhanced upconversion emissions by the addition of Li+ resulted from the formation of Li compound with lower crystal field symmetry. The fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) of green upconversion emissions from the transitions of H-2(11/2) > 4I(15/2) and S-4(3/2) -> I-4(15/2) of Era in the Er3+-Yb3+-Li+ codoped TiO2 has been studied as a function of temperature in the range of 300-925 K, and the maximum sensitivity was determined to be 0.0025 K-1. Er3+-Yb3+-Li+ codoped TiO2 material with the highest operating temperature up to 925 K, has higher temperature sensitivity and fluorescence efficiency being a promising candidate for applications in optical high temperature sensor.
