Abstract
Nano-structure pure barium titanate BaTiO 3 (BT) and (BT) co-doped with constant
concentration of Er 3+ ions and different concentrations of Yb 3+ ions were prepared using
sol–gel method. XRD results confirmed that the pure sample was found to crystallize in
tetragonal phase by sintering at 750° C for 1 h. All major peaks corresponding to perovskite
BT phase appeared. Efficient infrared-to-visible up-conversion is reported in the doped
samples. The conversion process and results in the generation of visible emissions are ...
