摘要
Er^3+ ions doped chalcohalide glasses with the composition of 56GeS2-24Ga2S3-20KCl were fabricated by a melt-quenching method.Under 800 nm laser excitation,strong green emissions centered at 525 nm and 550 nm and weak red emission centered at 660 nm were observed,which were assigned to ^2H11/2→^4I15/2,^4S3/2→^4I15/2,and ^4F9/2→^4I15/2 transitions,respectively.The intensity reached maximum when the Er^3+ ions concentration was 0.1 mol%.The possible upconversion luminescence mechanism was proposed from the discussion on the above results as well as the results of lifetimes of the metastable ^4I13/2 level and local environment of Er^3+ ions.It is found that chalcohalide glass can be good host materials for upconversion luminescence.
