Mechanisms of upconversion luminescence（UCL） of SrF2：Er phosphors corresponding to the 4G11∕2→4I15∕2,2H9∕2→4I15∕2,4F5∕2→4I15∕2,4F7∕2→4I15∕2,2H11∕2→4I15∕2,4S3∕2→4I15∕2,4F9∕2→4I15∕2, and 4I9∕2→...Mechanisms of upconversion luminescence（UCL） of SrF2：Er phosphors corresponding to the 4G11∕2→4I15∕2,2H9∕2→4I15∕2,4F5∕2→4I15∕2,4F7∕2→4I15∕2,2H11∕2→4I15∕2,4S3∕2→4I15∕2,4F9∕2→4I15∕2, and 4I9∕2→4I15∕2 transitions upon excitation of the 4I11∕2 level of Er3＋ions were investigated. Energy transfer upconversion processes are responsible for the populating of the 2H9∕2,2H11∕2,4S3∕2, and 4F9∕2 levels. Cooperative process is the dominant mechanism of luminescence from 4S3∕2 and 4F9∕2 levels for SrF2：Er with high concentrations of Er3＋ions. The UCL from 4G11∕2 and 4F5∕2 is explained by excited-state absorption. Cross-relaxation processes take part in the population of 4F9∕2 and 4I9∕2 levels. For quantifying material performance, the Er3＋-concentration dependence of UCL and the absolute quantum yields of SrF2：Er were studied. The most intensive visible luminescence was obtained for SrF2：Er（14.2%） with 0.28% maximum quantum yield.展开更多
