Abstract

We investigated the spectroscopic properties of borosilicate glass co-doped with Tb³⁺ and Yb³⁺, focusing our attention on studying the possibility of the cooperative up-conversion process in the Tb³⁺-Yb³⁺ co-doped system as a pumping scheme for Tb³⁺. A rate equation model for the Tb³⁺-Yb³⁺ co-doped system were analyzed. The model could reproduce the up-conversion emission dynamics well for all the samples co-doped with different Tb³⁺ number densities.
