Abstract
⺠Tb3+, Sm3+, and Eu3+ were doped into a LaF3-rich oxyfluoride glass. ⺠The 5D3 cross relaxation rate of Tb3+ can be tuned via concentration. ⺠The 5D3/5D4 emission intensity ratio was used as a probe for Tb3+ ion aggregation. ⺠Cross relaxation dominates the decay of the 4G5/2 excited state of Sm3+. ⺠Multiple Eu3+ sites yield a non-exponential 5D0 decay via 5D0â7F2 hypersensitivity.
