Abstract
We report on the Czochralski growth and optical properties of Ho3+ - a nd Er3+ - doped strontium lanthanum aluminate (SrLaAlO4) perovskite. T i-Sapphire laser excitation of the I-4(15/2)-->I-4(9/2)(Er3+) and I-5( 8)-->I-5(4)(Ho3+) transitions in Ho3+ - and Er3+ - doped SrLaAlO4 yiel ds intense green upconversion fluorescence which persists from 10K thr ough to room temperature. No upconversion fluorescence could be observ ed for 800 nm excitation of the H-3(6)-->H-3(4) transitions in Tm3+-do ped SrLaAlO4. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
