Abstract
This paper presents the results of one- and two-photon absorption followed by fluorescence for the Gd3+ ions doped in oxyfluoroborate glass. Fluoresce nce from the levels lying near 60,000 cm(-1) has been reported. The lifetim e of the high lying levels has also been measured. The concentration quench ing and the mechanism responsible for energy transfer are discussed. (C) 20 01 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
