Description

This work presents an analysis of Erbium visible up-conversions in TeO2-GeO2-PbO glasses codoped with Yb3+. These glasses have low phonon energy (∼700 cm-), high refractive index (∼2), large transmission window (350 nm-6500 nm) and can be easily fibered. As a result we observe an increase of the green and red up-conversion intensities when the concentration of Yb3+ increases
