Abstract
In this letter, we investigate the upconversion properties of 19ZnO–80TeO2–1Er2O3 glass after excitation into the I11/24 level using 980 nm radiation. At an excitation power density of 880 W/cm2, green emission [(2H11/2, 4S3/2)→4I15/2] dominates the upconversion spectrum with an efficiency of 0.16%. Temporal studies reveal that the I11/24 level is the intermediate state by which the two-step upconversion process occurs. Excited-state absorption and phonon-assisted energy transfer are discussed as possible mechanisms for the upconversion.
