Abstract

Transparent oxyfluoride glass ceramics containing Eu,Yb:PbF2 nanocrystals (average diameter 6.5 nm) is synthesized by secondary heat treatment of the initial SiO2-PbO-PbF2-CdF2 glass doped with YbF3 (1 mol %) and Eu2O3 (1 mol %); the optical absorption and the upconversion luminescence of this ceramics are studied. Intense orange luminescence (the CIE color coordinates are x = 0.602, y = 0.398) is obtained under excitation by a laser diode at a wavelength of 960 nm.
