본 연구에서는 간단 고상합성법(solid state reaction method)을 이용하여 $Yb^{3+}$, $Er^{3+}$ 이온이 동시도핑된 $NaGd(MoO4)_2$ ($NaGd(MoO_4)_2:Yb^{3+}/Er^{3+}$)를 성공적으로 합성하였으며, 결정구조 및 광학적 특성을 면밀히 분석하였다. 980nm의 근적외선 레이저를 합성된 NaGd(MoO4)2 파우더에 조사하였을 때 $NaGd(MoO_4)_2:Yb^{3+}/Er^{3+}$ 분말은 540 및 550 nm 부근에서 강한 녹색 발광과 함께 650 및 670 nm 부근에서의 매우약한 적색 발광을 하였으며 이러한 업컨버젼 발광 현상은 $Er^{3+}$ 이온 내의 infra 4f transition에 의한 현상임을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, $Yb^{3+}$ 및 $Er^{3+}$ 이온의 최적 도핑 농도는 각각 (10.0/10.0 mol%)로 확인되었으며, 그에 따른 upconversion 발광 메커니즘에 대하여 상세히 논의하였다.

Double molybdate $NaGd_{1-x}(MoO_4)_2:Ho^{3+}/Yb^{3+}$ phosphors with proper doping concentrations of $Ho^{3+}$ and $Yb^{3+}$ ($x=Ho^{3+}+Yb^{3+}$, $Ho^{3+}=0$ and 0.05, and $Yb^{3+}=0$, 0.35, 0.40, 0.45, and 0.50) were successfully synthesized using the microwave sol-gel method. Well-crystallized particles formed after heat-treatment at $800^{\circ}C$ for 16 h showed fine and homogeneous morphologies with particle sizes of $1{\sim}3{\mu}m$. The spectroscopic properties were examined using photoluminescence emission and Raman spectroscopy. Under excitation at 980 nm, the upconversion doped samples exhibited strong yellow emissions, from the combination of strong emission bands at 545 nm and 655 nm in the green and red spectral regions, respectively. The strong 545 nm emission band in the green region corresponded to the $^5S_2/^5F_4{\rightarrow}^5I_8$ transition in the $Ho^{3+}$ ions, while the strong 655 nm band in the red region appeared because of the $^5F_5{\rightarrow}^5I_8$ transition in the $Ho^{3+}$ ions. The pump power dependence and the Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage chromaticity of the upconversion emission intensity were evaluated in detail.

$NaCaGd(MoO_4)_3:Ho^{3+}/Yb^{3+}$ ternary molybdates were successfully synthesized by microwave sol-gel method for the first time. Well-crystallized particles formed after heat-treatment at $900^{\circ}C$ for 16 h showed a fine and homogeneous morphology with particle sizes of $3-5{\mu}m$. Under excitation at 980 nm, the UC intensities of the doped samples exhibited strong yellow emissions based on the combination of strong emission bands at the 520-nm and 630-nm emission bands in the green and red spectral regions, respectively. The strong 520-nm emission band in the green region corresponds to the $^5S_2/^5F_4{\rightarrow}^5I_8$ transition of $Ho^{3+}$ ions, while the strong 630-nm emission band in the red region appears to be due to the $^5F_5{\rightarrow}^5I_8$ transition of the $Ho^{3+}$ ions. The optimal $Yb^{3+}:Ho^{3+}$ ratio was found at 9:1, as indicated by the composition-dependent quenching effect of $Ho^{3+}$ ions. The pump power dependence of the upconversion emission intensity and the Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage chromaticity coordinates of the phosphors were evaluated in detail.
