Abstract
Slow multiphonon relaxation rate characteristics of fluoride and tellurite glasses have made possible a transient study of build-up of some electronic levels of Ho+3 and the extraction of the relaxation rates by a comparison of a two level model with the emission data. A fair agreement between the extracted rates and those predicted by an exponential law is found for two of the levels analyzed; however, the third level’s relaxation rate does not conform to the prediction.
