Abstract in Portuguese
Neste trabalho foram crescidos cristais de KY3F10 puros e dopados com Yb, Nd e Tm, visando à obtenção de emissão no azul através de conversão ascendente dos íons de Tm3+. Foram estabelecidas as melhores condições para a síntese e purificação de cristais de KY3F10. Os cristais dopados com 1,3 mol% de Nd, 0,5 mol% de Tm e concentrações variáveis de Yb (5, 10, 20, 30 e 40 mol%) foram obtidos através do resfriamento lento dos lingotes a partir da fusão, utilizando-se um sistema de síntese convencional e em uma atmosfera reativa de HF. Os parâmetros estudados para a obtenção destes cristais foram as taxas de resfriamento e diferentes configurações de barquinhas. Foi também determinado um limite de concentração de itérbio de 30mol% para a formação de única fase cúbica, para as taxas de resfriamento utilizadas neste trabalho. A caracterização química e física das amostras foi efetuada por difração de raios-X, análise térmica diferencial, espectrometria de emissão óptica por plasma acoplado indutivamente (ICP-OES), microscopia eletrônica de varredura, absorção e emissão ópticas. Um estudo espectroscópico inicial foi realizado para verificar o efeito da concentração de itérbio na eficiência de emissão no azul para o cristal de KY3F10:Yb:Nd:Tm. Quando o íon de Nd é bombeado em 797nm, determinou-se que as concentrações apropriadas de Yb devem estar entre 10 e 20 mol% para a emissão em 480nm e entre 20 e 30 mol% para a emissão em 450nm. Observou-se também que as emissões no ultravioleta (350 e 360nm) cresceram consideravelmente com o aumento de Yb3+ na amostra.

Abstract in English
In this work, crystals of KY3F10 pure and doped with Yb, Nd and Tm were grown aiming at the attainment of blue emission via Tm3+ ions upconversion. It was established the best conditions to synthesis and purification of KY3F10. Crystals doped with 1.3 mol% Nd, 0.5 mol% Tm and some concentrations of Yb (5, 10, 20, 30 and 40 mol%) were obtained by slow cooling of the charge from the melt, using an usual conventional synthesis system and in a reactive HF atmosphere. It was taken into account parameters as cooling rate and different configurations of boats to conditioning the materials. The limit of Yb concentration to obtain a unique cubic phase was determined as 30mol%, for the cooling rates used in this work. The physical and chemical characterizations of the samples were performed by X-ray diffraction, differential thermal analysis, inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES), scanning electron microscopy, optical absorption and emission. An initial spectroscopic study was performed to verify the effect of the Yb3+ concentration regarding the blue emission efficiency in the KY3F10:Yb:Nd:Tm. When the Nd3+ is pumped at 797 nm, it was determined that the suitable Yb concentrations are between 10 and 20 mol% to obtain blue emission at 480 nm, and between 20 and 30 mol% to obtain emission at 450 nm. It was observed that two emissions bands in the UV (350 and 360nm) enhanced proportionally with the Yb3+ concentration.
