Abstract

Tm3+/Ho3+ co-doped tellurite aluminate glasses were prepared using the melt-quenching technique. Under 808 nm laser diode (LD) excitation, these glasses exhibit intense 2 μm band luminescence, with a full width at half-maximum (FWHM) of 144 nm. The energy transfer mechanism between Tm3+ and Ho3+ was explored to investigate the luminescence behavior further. Furthermore, the forward energy transfer coefficient (Tm3+→Ho3+) is greater than the backward energy transfer coefficient (Ho3+→Tm3+), indicating that Tm3+ can effectively sensitize Ho3+. As mentioned above, Tm3+/Ho3+ co-doped tellurite aluminate glass is a competitive material in the laser field.
