White light has been produced using 798 nm laser excitation in Tm3++Ho3++Yb3+ codoped tellurite and germanate glasses. These glasses simultaneously generate the three primary colors, red, green, and blue, on 798 nm excitation. Thus, multicolor emission obtained was tuned to white luminescence by adjusting the Ho3+ ion concentration and excitation power. UV excitation and fluorescence spectra of these triply doped glasses give additional emissions, which do not appear on 798 nm excitation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
