Resumo
The influence of silver nanoparticles (NPs) on the frequency upconversion due to the energy transfer
between erbium (Fr*) and ytterbium (Yb") ions in a co-doped glass is reported for the first time
Erbium doped glasses have been studied and used in a variety of photonic applications. Nevertheless,
efficient pumping of this ion is limited by the low absorption cross-section of Fr** around 980 nm that
can be improved by co-doping the material with Yb* jons [1]. Recently, Er®* doped lead-germanate
glasses containing silver NPs were studicd [2], Lead-germanate glasses are excellent materlals ſor
photonic applications due to their high mechanical resistance, high chemical durability and thermal
Stability, large transmission window (400 to 4500 nm), high refractive index. large nonlinear optical
response, and low cutoff phonon energy (400 - 800 cm™) [3]. Besides, these glasses have proved to
be good hosts for NPs nucleation [2]. To the basic glass composition 41Pb0-59.0Ge0, (in mol%) we
added 0.5 wt% of Erz0z, 3.0 wi% of YbJO, and 1.0 wt% of AgNO;; the samples were obtained
melting the starting oxide powers. quenching and annealing during different times to reduce the Ag’
ions to Ag’ in order to nucleate silver NPs. Measurements of (ransmission electron microscopy were
performed and the visible upconversion spectrum was measured by optically pumping the sample with
a high power CW diode laser emitting 5 W at 980 nm. Emission bands centered at 524, 547, and 659 nm were abserved corresponding 10 *Hi1g — 5o 'S42 — 15, and Fay — 1152 transitions of Fr'
ions, respectively. Measurements of the upconversion intensity as a function of the laser power were
performed. The influence of silver NPs in the Yb* — Er"” energy transfer mechanism is discussed
and is attributed to the Influence of the surface plasmon resonance (associated to the NPs) that favors
the emissions in the green region in comparison with the red emission. We remark that in the absence
of the silver NPs green and red emissions have almost the same intensity.
