Abstract

For the no-phonon transition 5 D 0 → 7 F 0 of Eu 3+ in glasses, obtained by sol-gel route, emission and absorption at low temperature are not resonant. This effect is interpreted by a redistribution of the excitation energy among the different environment for the Eu 3+ ion. A simple model is used to interpret the temperature evolution of the emission spectra. A good agreement is obtained with experimental results. The experimental emission spectra are simulated using the Boltzmann law and the experimental excitation spectra. The mechanism of redistribution is a phonon-assisted energy transfer process. This is confirmed by temperature dependance of decays and time resolved emission measurements
