Abstract

The spectroscopic characteristics of blue up-conversion emission in potassium yttrium tungstate crystal (KYW), which is codoped with the thulium and the ytterbium ions, were discussed. In the KYW host, an overall ³H ₆ multiplet splitting of ∼530 cm ^-1 for the trivalent thulium ion, was obtained. It was found that for a quasi-three-level lasing scheme, the large splitting was favorable. For the ¹G ₄→ ³H ₆ blue luminescence in the Yb (5 at. %), Tm (1 at. %):KYW material, a decay time of ∼112μs was measured.
