Abstract: | An analytical model is developed to study the influence of the Auger upconversion process on the thermal loading under lasing
and nonlasing conditions. With the developed model, Auger upconversion rates can be determined by comparing theoretical calculations
with experimental results for the ratio of the thermal loading under lasing and nonlasing conditions. The upconversion rates
obtained with the present method are compared with the results measured from the fluorescence decay experiment.
