Fluorescence spectra of a solution containing Dy3+ ions have been measured at room temperature. The excitation spectrum features show a great peak at 350nm when the detection wavelength is fixed at 483 nm. Meanwhile another weaker peak takes place at 630nm, which is owing to two-photon absorption. Therefore, as the excitation wavelength is fixed at 320nm and 630 nm, respectively, both single-photon and two-photon absorption induced fluorescence emission peaks are observed. Furthermore, the emission excited by 630nm is more intense. When silver colloids are added to the solution containing Dy3+, the enhancements of two-photon absorption induced fluorescence are more intensive. We believe that these enhanced fluorescence are due to the local field enhancement around Dy3+ ions owing to the induced surface plasmon resonance of silver nanoparticles.
