Sol-Gel Preparation and Luminescence Properties of BaMgAl10O17∶Eu2+ Phosphors

The synthesis of BaMgAl10O17∶ Eu2 (BAM) phosphors using the sol-gel method and their luminescence properties were reported. The blue-light emitting BAM was synthesized using citric acid and ethylene glycol as chelating materials. Emission of blue-light was obtained from these phosphors. The luminescent intensity increases as the temperature of heat treatment is increased. This study investigated the effects of the molar ratio of ethylene glycol to citric acid (Φ value), with respect to the phase formation and luminescence properties of BAM. The variation of the Φ value resulted in the change of the sol-gel reaction mechanism and the microstructures of the resultant powders. An increase in Φ value leads to an increase in the rate of BAM phase formation. The photoluminescent intensity of the prepared phosphors increases with heating temperatures because of enhanced crystallization.     

New method for measuring an optical property of a sample treated by FWA

In this article, a new method for measuring a total spectral radiance factor of a FWA‐treated sample illuminated by a specific standard illuminant is introduced. The method replaces an unstable real fluorescent standard by a bi‐spectral luminescent radiance factor data, which works as a virtual fluorescent standard (VFS) by knowing spectral intensity distributions of illuminations applied to the sample. The method utilizes two illuminations I₁ and I₂ whose relative spectral intensity distributions are different from each other and synthesizes a virtual illumination presenting the identical fluorescent spectral radiance factor to that presented by the standard illuminant with the VFS of the specific bi‐spectral luminescent radiance factor by linearly combining I₁ and I₂ with the suitable weighting factors. The applicability of the method is examined in principle by comparing ISO brightness and CIE whiteness index of fluorescent standard paper as a test sample obtained by this new method to the assigned values. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

高分子金属配合物发光材料的制备技术进展

高分子金属配合物发光材料是一类很有价值的功能材料,评述了有关它的各种合成方法。以金属离子与含配位基团的聚合物进行反应,容易在高聚物之间形成交联,难以获得发光强度高的高分子配合物;使金属离子与高分子配体和小分子配体同时作用,可以得到荧光强度比较理想的产物,但反应难以定量控制;以小分子金属配合物单体与某些单体之间进行共聚合反应,也可获得荧光强度较高的高分子配合物,但聚合反应的空间位阻较大;通过两端都含有配位基团的刚性链的有机小分子配体直接与金属离子配合形成高分子金属配合物;以小分子金属配合物单体进行均聚或者将小分子金属配合物接枝到高聚物上也可以形成高分子金属配合物。

Growth of Au nanocrystals on CdS nanorods

Nanorods of S²⁻ rich CdS were synthesized by a reaction of excess S versus Cd precursors in the presence of ethylene diamine. The photoluminescence (PL) emission from the S²⁻ rich CdS nanorods was broad with a peak at ∼710 nm, which was 40 nm longer in wavelength than the PL peak from Cd²⁺ rich CdS (∼670 nm) nanorods. The influence of surface electron or hole trap states on the luminescent pathway of CdS nanorods will be discussed to explain these shifts in wavelength. Nanocrystals of Au ∼2 nm in size were grown on S²⁻ rich surfaces of CdS nanorods. Significant luminescence quenching was observed from the Au nanocrystals on the CdS nanorods due to interfacial charge separation. Change separation by the Au nanocrystals on the CdS resulted in enhanced photocatalytic degradation of Procion red mix-5B (PRB) dye in an aqueous solution under UV light irradiation.     

Intrinsically Flexible and Aging Resistant Fluorene-Based Rod-Coil Copolymer for Bendable Deep-Blue PLEDs

In the field of flexible light-emitting display, goal-oriented intelligent molecular design is used to control various behaviors of molecules, which provides potential for the development of flexible light-emitting conjugated polymers (LCPs). The introduction of non-conjugated units into polymer molecules is a key prerequisite for realizing the intrinsic flexibility, but its easy interchain slip will also lead to the formation of interchain excited states, which is detrimental to the efficiency of light-emitting diodes. Herein, two kinds of fluorene-based rod-coil copolymer with stable deep blue emission characteristics is presented and with Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage (CIE) coordinates of (0.18, 0.14) and (0.15, 0.09), respectively. Surprisingly, the copolymer films show efficient blue emission even at 100% tension. Meanwhile, the rod-coil copolymer possesses better aging resistance compared to rigid π-conjugated counterparts. Finally, both rigid and flexible light-emitting diodes based on rod-coil copolymer exhibit stable deep blue emission, and the G2-based PLED with CIE coordinates of (0.16, 0.08), which approach National Television System Committee standard blue specification. These results confirm the validity of rod-coil copolymer design strategy in constructing inherently flexible polymers with deep blue emission, which have great application potential in flexible PLEDs.     

Recent Progress of Bismuth Effect on All-Inorganic Lead-Free Metal Halide Derivatives: Crystals Structure,Luminescence Properties,and Applications

Bismuth (Bi³⁺)-included lead-free metal halide (LFMH) materials attract much attention in lighting, display, photodetectors, X-ray detectors, and photovoltaic fields, due to the tunable luminescence and optoelectronic performance in response to crystal and electronic structure, morphology, and particle sizes. This review summarizes Bi³⁺-included LFMH materials about their preparation approach, crystal and electronic structure properties, luminescence performance, and emerging applications. Notably, Bi³⁺ ions not only can act as framework cation to construct stable LFMH structure, but can also incorporate into LFMH materials as activators or sensitizers to generate remarkable luminescence tuning and band engineering. The Bi³⁺ effect on the luminescence and optoelectronic properties of LFMH materials, including, promotion of exciton localization, enhancement of light absorption in near-ultraviolet region, action as sensitizer ions to transfer energy to rare earth or transition metal ions and emission of highly-efficient light is systematically summarized. The proposed structure-luminescence relationship offers guidance for the optimization of current Bi³⁺-included LFMH materials and the exploitation of new LFMH derivatives.
