Abstract

Much strong blue emission has been observed in pentaphosphate non crystals at room temperature, highly doped with Yb³⁺ and Tm³⁺ when excited into the Yb³⁺ ²F_7/2 state and the excited states of Tm³⁺ at 966 nm by laser diode. Energy transfer and back transfer between the two rare earth ions, participation of phonons, and pair induced quenching were demonstrated to be responsible for the upconversion process.
