[A novel red phosphor (La3PO7:Eu3+) prepared by solid state method].

Novel red phosphor, Eu3+ -doped oxyphosphate (La3 PO7:Eu3+), was synthesized by a solid state method under high temperature. All the starting materials were analytical grade. La2O3, EuO3 and (NH4)2HPO4 weighed in appropriated molar ratios and ground in an agate mortar.

[High efficiency and low threshold upconversion from IR to red for Er3+ and Tm3+ co-doped fluoride-oxide glass-ceramic].

In this paper, high efficiency and low threshold upconversion from IR to red is reported, for Er3+ and Tm3+ co-doped fluoride-oxide glass-ceramic under 978 nm LD excitation. The component of sample in experiment is 65GeO2-25NaF-8.5BaF2-1Er2O3-0.
