A model for enhanced up-conversion luminescence in erbium-doped tellurite glass containing silver nanoparticles
Nanoparticles (NPs) size dependent enhancement of the infrared-to-visible frequency upconversion (UC) and absorption coefficient in silver NPs embedded Er3+ doped tellurite glasses on pumping with the 976 nm radiation are investigated. Rate equations are derived by developing a comprehensive 4-level...
