Three intense emissions centered at 525, 545 and 655 nm owing to the transitions 2H11/2-4I15/2, 4S3/2 -4I15/2 and 4F9/2-4I15/2, respectively, are observed when pumping power is as low as 20 mW. The upconversion mechanisms and power dependent intensities are discussed. The high-populated 4I11/2 level is supposed to serve as the intermediate state responsible for the upconversion processes.展开更多
