Up-conversion luminescence of ytterbium and thulium codoped potassium yttrium double tungstate crystalThulium and ytterbium co-doped double tungstate Yb 3+ ,Tm 3+ : NaY(WO 4 ) 2 single crystals were prepared by using RF-heating Czochralski (CZ) pulling method. Its polarized transmittance spectra have been recorded in the region of 290-2000nm at room temperature. The energy levels transitions were assigned to the corresponding absorption line. The up-conversion luminescences at 793nm and 475nm w ere measured when the sample were pumped by 972nm LD and the energy transfer mechanism between Yb 3+ and Tm 3+ ions was analyzed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
