摘要
A transparent Tb3+ and Yb3+ codoped oxyfluoride glass ceramic containing CaF2 nanocrystals was developed. This glass ceramic showed an intense ultraviolet emission at 381 nm due to the (5)G(6), D-5(3)-> F-7(6) transitions of Tb3+ ion when excited with a 974 nm laser at room temperature. The observed intense ultraviolet emission could be attributed to the change of ligand field of Tb3+ and Yb3+ ions due to the incorporation of some Tb3+ and Yb3+ ions into CaF2 nanocrystals, and the resulting increased branching ratio of the transitions and longer lifetime of D-5(4) level of Tb3+ in the glass ceramic.
