Abstract

Upconversion (UC) spectra of Ho³/Yb³ codoped Y ₂O₃, Gd₂O₃ bulk ceramics were obtained under the excitation of a 976 nm diode laser. Systematic experimental studies, including power dependence, luminescence lifetime, and the intensity ratio σ for the green to NIR emissions, were carried out in order to confirm the UC mechanism of Ho³ ions. Our results demonstrated that the NIR emission was associated with the ⁵F₄/ ⁵S₂→⁵I₇ transition of Ho ³ ions without the contribution of the ⁵I ₄→⁵I₈ transition for Ho ³/Yb³ codoped Y₂O₃ and Gd ₂O₃ bulk ceramics. Additionally, population saturation in the ⁵I₇ energy level had been observed in Ho ³/Yb³ codoped Y₂O₃, Gd ₂O₃ bulk ceramics. All experimental observations can be well explained by the steady-state rate equations.
