“…This feasibility is due to the confinement of characteristic fluorescence spectra of Dy 3+ ion, consisting of 4 F 9/2 → 6 H J (J = 7/2, 9/2, 11/2, 13/2 and 15/2) transitions in visible and near infrared region. Within these emission transitions, the yellow band at 575 nm ( 4 F 9/2 → 6 H 13/2 ) and the blue band at 485 nm ( 4 F 9/2 → 6 H 15/2 ) are predominant transitions [30]. It is also well known that the 4 F 9/2 → 6 H 13/2 transition is hypersensitive ( L = 2, J = 2), and its intensity strongly depends on the host, whereas intensity of the 4 F 9/2 → 6 H 15/2 transition is less sensitive to the host.…”
