| Description | Journal: Chinese Physics Letters A novel method of codoping the $Er^{3+}$, $Yb^{3+}$, and $Ho^{3+}$ ions in tellurite glasses is demonstrated to obtain a high efficiency of infrared-to-visible upconversion. Three intense emission bands observed in $Er^{3+}$, $Yb^{3+}$, and $Ho^{3+}$ codoped tellurite glasses centred at 525, 547, and 657 nm correspond to $Er^{3+}$:$ $^{2}H_{11/2}→^{4}$I_{15/2}$, $Er^{3+}$:$ $^{4}S_{3/2}→^{4}I_{15/2}$+Ho^{3+}$:$ $^{5}S_{2}(^{5}F_{4})→^{5}$I_{8}$, and $Er^{3+}$:$ $^{4}S_{3/2}→^{4}I_{15/2}$+Ho^{3+}$:$ $^{5}F_{5}→^{5}$I_{8}$ transitions, respectively. No visible upconversion quenching phenomenon is observed when three rare-earth ions are codoped together in tellurite glasses. In contrast, the upconversion intensity of red and green emissions in $Er^{3+}$, $Yb^{3+}$, and $Ho^{3+}$ codoped glasses is enhanced largely when compared with $Er^{3+}/Yb^{3+}$-codoped glasses. The dependence of upconversion intensities on excitation power and the possible upconversion mechanisms are evaluated. The three emissions are based on two-photon absorption processes. |
