RESUMO

This works presents studies of the production and the characterization of TeO2 -PbO-GeO2 doped with erbium, thulium and ytterbium ions and also prepared with different metallic nanoparticles for applications in displays. This glass system presents a broad transmission window in the visible and infrared (350 - 6500 nm), high solubility for rare earth ions, low phonon energy (about 700 cm-1) and considerable chemical, mechanical and thermal, stabilities which are important factors for the production of displays or devices used for illumination. This work can be divided in three parts, and starts with the study of the photoluminescence of teluritte glasses doped with erbium followed by the study of erbium and ytterbium codoped glasses. The second part presents the influence of metallic nanoparticles on the luminescence of samples codoped with erbium and ytterbium and, finally, in the third part, the study of samples doped with erbium, thulium and ytterbium with and without metallic nanoparticles. The incorporation of rare earth ions in the trivalent form was determined by means of optical absorption and emission measurements and, by using the transmission electron microscopy technique to the nucleation of metallic nanoparticles. Among the codoped samples, produced with different metallic nanoparticles, we remark the sample produced with silver nanoparticles that presented enhancement of erbium upconversion luminescence of approximately 50%. Samples doped with erbium, thulium and ytterbium showed possible applications for full color displays.
