摘要
Red upconversion (UC) emission at 626 nm is obtained from a LiNbO3 crystal codoped with Er3+ and Eu3+ under 800 nm femtosecond laser excitation. Energy transfer from (H-2(11/2), S-4(3/2)) levels of Er3+, which are excited by excited state absorptions, to D-5(1) of Eu3+ followed by cascade to D-5(0) nonradiatively leads to this red UC emission. The energy transfer efficiency of similar to 30% is obtained in LiNbO3:Er3+(1.0 mol%), Eu3+(0.1 mol%). These initial experimental results indicate that the red UC emission can be obtained from Er3+/Eu3+ codoped system under diode laser excitation. (C) 2009 Optical Society of America
