摘　　要：钛酸锶(SrTiO3)具有高介电常数、良好的绝缘性质、优良的物理化学稳定性和在可见光范围内的优异的透明度等优点,是一种重要的无机功能材料。近年来,Al3+,Ga3+等离子共掺杂的SrTiO3∶Pr3+做为一种优异的红色场发射显示(FED)荧光粉引起了人们的兴趣。另外,SrTiO3具有相对较小的声子频率,因而它可以作为一种有利于上转换发光的基质材料。以NaCl为助熔剂制备了Er3+,Yb3+共掺杂的SrTiO3超细粉末。在980nm激发下,样品发出很强的来自于Er3+离子的2H11/2→4I15/2,4S3/2→4I15/2(绿光)和4F9/2→4I15/2(红光)跃迁的上转换发光。Yb3+离子的共掺杂对Er3+离子的上转换发光起明显的增强作用。研究了上转换发光强度与稀土离子浓度以及激发光强度之间的依赖关系,表明在Er3+单掺杂和Er3+,Yb3+共掺杂的样品中,绿光和红光都是被双光子激发过程激发的。还对上转换发光的机理做了初步分析。There has been an intense interest in the investigation of ultra-fine and nanocrystalline oxide upconversion materials these years for potential applications in upconversion phosphors, detectors for infrared radiation, fluorescent labels for sensitive detection of biomolecules and two-photon confocal-microscope imaging. Numerous host materials, such as Y2O3, Gd2O3, ZrO2, TiO2 and BaTiO3, have been investigated as host material for upconversion phosphors due to their low phonon-vibration frequencies. Er^3＋ doped materials are well suitable for upconversion because the metastable levels ^4I9/2 and ^4I11/2 of Er^3＋ can be conveniently populated by low-cost high-power 800 nm and 980 nm laser diodes, respectively. The sensitization of Er^3＋ doped materials by Yb^3＋ ions is a well-known method for increasing the optical pump efficiency because of the high absorption cross section of Yb^3＋ ions around 980 nm and the efficient energy transfer from Yb^3＋ to Er^3＋ ions. Strontium titanate （SrTiO3） is a weU-known material because of its good properties, such as its high dielectric constant, high charge storage capacity, good insulating property, its chemical and physical stability and its excellent optical transparency in the visible range. In addition, similar to BaTiO3, its phonon-vibration frequency is quite low, which makes it suitable for host material as upconversion phosphors. But to the best of our knowledge, there is no reports on upconversion of Er^3＋ doped, Er^3＋/Yb^3＋-codoped SrTiO3 powders. Er^3＋-doped and Er^3 ＋/Yb^3 ＋ -codoped SrTiO3 ultra-fine powders have been prepared in a molten NaClflux. The structure properties of the samples were examined by X-ray diffraction （XRD） ; Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy （FT-IR） and field emission scan electron microscopy （FE-SEM）. FT-IR spectra showed that SrTiO3 powders may have higher upconversion luminescence efficiency because of its low phonon-vibration frequency. The intense green and red emissions around 528,550
