Abstract
Experimental results are presented that lead to the conclusion that ne w laser systems and elements of fiber-optic communication lines can in principle be made on the basis of the material studied here, which ha ve new spectroscopic characteristics. The effect studied in this paper is the following: an increase in the luminescence efficiency with fre quency upconversion for three-element doping; this is a novel finding and has no analog.
