Abstract
The energy transfer between Yb3+ and Ho3+ ions and the energy migratio n on Yb3+ ions as a function of temperature were studied in gadolinium gallium garnet crystals doped with Yb3+ (5%) and Ho3+ (3%). It was fo und that the commonly accepted energy transfer theories do not provide a good description of the system studied. The application of several theories gives contradictory results.
