Abstract
The upconversion photoluminescence of Ho3+ ion sensitized by Yb3+ ion in Ho3+/Yb3+codoped Gd 2O3 nanocrystals with and without Li+ is investigated in this paper. Strong fluorescence in the green (534-570â?nm) and red (635-674â?nm) regions of the spectrum has been observed, arising from the 5F4/5S2 â? 5I8 and 5F5 â? 5I8 transitions of Ho3+ ion, respectively. Yb3+ ion is considered to be a better sensitizer for catching enough pumping energy and transferring considerable energy to Ho3+ in the Ho3+/Yb3+system. The upconversion intensity emitted by Ho3+ is greatly enhanced when Li+ is added to the Ho 3+/Yb3+ codoped Gd2O3 nanocrystals.
