Abstract
- Cryolite was considered to be an ideal up-conversion host material due to its low phonon energy, which can effectively suppress the radiation-free transition process of excited state energy levels. In the present paper, a novel up-conversion material K 3 YF 6 :Ho3+, Yb3+ with cryolite structure was prepared successfully using a high-temperature solid state method. The up-conversion luminescence properties of K 3 YF 6 doped with different Ho3+/Yb3+ doping ratio were investigated and the optimal doping ratio were confirmed in this system. Under 980 nm excitation, Ho3+/Yb3+ co-doped K 3 YF 6 revealed a strong green emission at the 541 nm, 549 nm and a weak red emission peaking at 666 nm, corresponding to the 5F 4 , 5S 2 →5I 8 and 5F 5 →5I 8 transitions of Ho3+, respectively. All the red and green up-conversion emission of K 3 YF 6 :Ho3+, Yb3+ belong to two-photon process and energy transfer from Yb3+ to Ho3+ simultaneously. Additionally, to understand the energy transfer and electronic transition process of the red and green light emitted, the possible luminescence mechanism were also analyzed in this paper. All the results indicate that Ho3+/Yb3+ co-doped K 3 YF 6 have potential application value in green up-conversion luminescent materials. • Single-phase up-conversion luminescent materials K 3 YF 6 : Ho3+,Yb3+ with cryolite structure were obtained for the first time. • The up-conversion luminescence properties and mechanism of the as-prepared samples were analyzed under excitation of 980 nm. • Two-phonon up-conversion phenomenon was confirmed.
