Frequency upconversion (UC) luminescence in nanocrystalline zirconia (ZrO2) and hafnia (HfO2) doped with Er3+ and Yb3+ was studied under continuous-wave excitation at 980 nm. Samples of ZrO2:Er3+, ZrO2:Er3+/Yb3+, and HfO2:Er3+/Yb3+ were prepared by the sol-gel technique and characterized using x-ray diffraction and electron microscopy. A study of the infrared-to-green and infrared-to-red UC processes was performed including the analysis of the spectral and the temporal behavior. The mechanisms contributing to the UC luminescence were identified as excited state absorption and energy transfer among rare-earth ions. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics.
