Optical Upconversion Properties Of Tm2O3 / Yb2O3 Doped Lead Tellurite Glasses

The melt-quench process was used to create the lead-tellurite glasses codoped with lanthanides as thulium and ytterbium. Thermal characterization carried by differential scanning calorimetry. X-ray diffraction is studies to get the nature of sold sample. The UV-Visible-IR absorption spectra was carried in range of 300 nm to 1100 nm. There were four unique absorption peaks on the glass thulium –ytterbium doped glass. The frequency up-conversion (UC) fluorescence has been seen at room temperature by 975 nm excitation
