Abstract

The standard expression for the excited state acceptor concentration in codoped solid-state materials is modified to include the possibility of non-radiative acceptor de-excitation. The chromium and thulium time-dependent emission in yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) is then studied; evidence is given for the identification of the tendency for localized correlated chromium-thulium pairs in the crystalline material.
