Abstract

A model for population dynamics of Er³⁺ in tellurite glasses with high erbium concentrations is proposed. Luminescence decay curves from transitions of ⁴I_13/2→ ⁴I_15/2 and ⁴S_3/2→⁴I_15/2 were measured experimentally. Cooperative upconversion coefficients were obtained by numerically solving the rate equations of the model to fit the population dynamics of the ⁴I_13/2 and ⁴S_3/2 levels. The cooperative upconversion coefficient for ⁴I_13/2+⁴I_13/2→ ⁴I_9/2+⁴I_15/2 is found to be 2.74×10^-18 cm³/s and for ⁴I_11/2+⁴I_11/2→ ⁴I_15/2+²F_7/2 is 1.09×10^-18 cm³/s. The model provides a good basis for explaining the experiment data as it shows a high sensitivity to the input fitting parameters. This model can be used to analyze spectroscopic properties of Er³⁺ ions in glass hosts where various energy levels of Er³⁺ and transitions between them cannot be neglected.
