Abstract

The vacuum ultraviolet excitation and ultraviolet-visible emission spectra are reported for the laser and upconverter material KPb2 Cl 5: Er3+. The low-phonon energies of the host lattice enable, in addition to the ten luminescent states of Er3+ in the visible and infrared spectral regions at room temperature, the observation of a further two luminescent multiplet terms in the ultraviolet spectral region at 10 K. A careful distinction is made between 4 f11 -4 f11 Er3+ transitions and the band to band and Pb2+ transitions. © 2008 American Institute of Physics.
