摘要
Nanostructured transparent glass-ceramics with composition of 95SiO(2)-5LaF(3) co-doped with 0.3Yb(3+), 0.1Ho(3+) and 0.1Tm(3+) (mol%) were synthesized by thermal treatment of precursor sol-gel derived glasses. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy analysis point out the precipitation of hexagonal LaF3 nanocrystals with diameter ranging from 11 to 20 nm in these nano-glass-ceramics. White light generation by means of efficient blue, green and red up-conversion luminescence under infrared excitation at 980 nm was observed and involved mechanisms were analyzed. Colour tuneability is achieved by varying the up-conversion emission ratios as a function of pump power.
