Кинетика нарастания ап-конверсионной люминесценции кристалла LiY-=SUB=-0.8-=/SUB=-Yb-=SUB=-0.2-=/SUB=-F-=SUB=-4-=/SUB=- : Tm-=SUP=-3+-=/SUP=- (0.2 at.%) при импульсном возбуждении
AbstractThe regression analysis of the rise kinetics of up-conversion luminescence of the LiY_0.8Yb_0.2F_4:Tm^3+ (0.2 at %) crystal is performed. The kinetics curve is obtained with rectangular pulsed excitation by radiation from a laser diode (IR LD) with a wavelength of λ_ p = 933 nm. The most important—in these experimental conditions—mechanisms of the energy transfer from Yb^3+ ions to Tm^3+ ions are established, which are responsible for the transitions between the ground ^3 H _6 and excited ^3 F _4, ^3 H _4, ^1 G _4, ^1 D _2, and ^1 I _6 terms of the Tm^3+ ions. The durations of the relevant energy transfer processes are determined. It is shown that the energy transfer between rare earth ions in the LiY_0.8Yb_0.2F_4:Tm^3+ (0.2 at %) crystal occurs through the dipole–dipole interactions.
