New oxyfluoride glasses and glass ceramics co-doped with Nd3+, Yb3+ and Ho3+ were prepared. The upconversion of infrared radiation into green fluorescence has been studied for Nd3+, Yb3+ and Ho3+ in the transparent oxyfluoride glass ceramics. At room temperature very strong green upconversion luminescence due to the Ho3+: (5F4, 5S2) →5I8transition under 800 nm excitation was observed in the glass ceramics. The intensity of the green upconversion luminescence in a 1mol% YbF3-containing glass ceramic was found to be about 120 times stronger than that in the precursor oxyfluoride glass. The reason for the highly efficient Ho3+ upconversion luminescence in the oxyfluoride glass ceramics is discussed. The upconversion mechanism is also investigated.
