Abstract
Energy transfer (ET) between Ce3+ → Tm3+ and Ce3+ and Ce3+ → Tb3+ in phosphate glass was measured in the temperature range 7-300 K. The efficiency of ET between Ce3+ and Tm3+ is independent of temperature, while temperature increase is observed in the Ce3+Tb3+ pair. This is explained by the increase with temperature of the overlap between Ce3+ emission and Tb3+ absorption bands.
