研究了70TeO2-(15-x)ZnO-15Na2O-xB2O3-1wt%Er2O3(x=0、4、8、12和mol%)玻璃系统中B2O3的含量对Er^3+上转换光谱性质的影响。结果表明:随B2O3含量的增加,Fr^31的^4 I11/2能级寿命减小;^4 I11/2→I13/2无辐射跃迁几率增加;Er^3+的上转换绿光(^4S3/2、^2H11/2→I15/2)和红光(^4F9/2→4I15/2)减弱。基于Er^3+在975nm波长激发下的上转换机理,建立了^4F7/2、^H11/2(^4S3/2)、^4H9/2、^4 I11/2和^4I13/2。这5个激发态能级的速率方程,结果表明,上转换绿光和红光强度跟^4 I11/2能级的粒子数的平方存在着正比关系。
The effect of B2O3 on upconversion fluorescence in 70TeO2-(15-x)ZnO-15Na2O-xB2O3-1wt%Er2O3(x=0、4、8、12 and L5 mol%) glasses has been investigated. The results indicated that,with increasing the B2O3 content in the glass composition,the non-decay rate of ^4S3/2、^2H11/2→I15/2 transition increases, while the lifetime of ^4 I11/2 level and the green- and red-upvonversion fluorescence decrease. A comprehensive five-level rate-equation model based on the^4F7/2、^H11/2(^4S3/2)、^4H9/2、^4 I11/2 and^4I13/2 of the Er^3+ population dynamics is developed under 975 nm excitation. The model suggests that the green -and red-upconversion intensity is a quadratic dependence on the population density of the ^4 I11/2 level.
