Transparent P2O5–CaO–Na2O glasses codoped with Er3+ and Yb3+ ions were fabricated by high-temperature melting technique. Strong near infrared and visible upconversion luminescence were observed under 975 nm laser diode excitation, and the luminescence processes were explained in details. For 1.54 μm band, the calculated peak emission cross sections is 1.04×10−20 cm2, and it is better than that in germinate, tellurite, silicate, and other phosphate glasses. The near infrared upconversion emission around 828 nm contains two-photon and three-photon processes, and it is attributed to the transition S43/2→I413/2, which enhances the population of the upper level for 1.54 μm laser emission and reduces the energy loss due to upconversion. Efficient near infrared fluorescence indicates Er3+/Yb3+ codoped phosphate glass is a promising laser and amplifier material.
