Ca2Gd8(SiO4)6O2∶ A(A=Pb2 , Tm3 )phosphors were prepared through the sol-gel process. X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM)and photoluminescence spectra were used to characterize the resulting phosphors. The results of XRD indicate that the phosphors crystallized completely at 1000 ℃. SEM study reveals that the average grain size is 300～1000 nm. In Ca2Gd8(SiO4)6O2∶ Tm3 phosphors, the Tm3 shows its characteristic blue emission at 456 nm(1D2-3F4)upon excitation into its 3H6 - 1D2(361 nm), with an optimum doping concentration of 1mol% of Gd3 in the host lattices. In Ca2Gd8(SiO4)6O2∶ Pb2 , Tm3 phosphors, excitation into the Pb2 at 266 nm(1S0-3P1)yields the emissions of Gd3 at 311 nm(6P-8S)and Tm3 at 367 nm(1D2 -3H6)and 456 nm(1D2-3F4), indicating that energy transfer processes of Pb2 - Gd3 and Pb2 - Tm3 have occurred in the host lattices.

Photoluminescent properties of Ca2Gd8(SiO4)6O2: Dy3+ phosphor films prepared by sol-gel process

There are growing interests on phosphor thin films owing to their potential application in high-resolution devices such as cathode ray tubes and flat panel display devices. The solution-based sol-gel method is one of the most important techniques for the synthesis of vari-ous functional coating films. Compounds with the apatite structure are very suitable host lattices for various luminescent ions.

Single-phase magnetic superconductors RESrzRuCuzOs(RE = C,d and Eu) were successfully synthesized and investigations on their physical properties were carried out. It is found that the structure of the compounds is similar to that of YBa2Cu307 and its superconductivity coexists with weak ferromagnetic order in both compounds. The compounds exhibit magnetic order below TM = 130 and 136 K and superconducting below TC^onset = 35 and 46 K, respectively, for RE = Eu and Gd samples. There is slight difference in the magnetic properties between RE = Euand C,d compounds owing to various magnetic moments for C,d3 and Eu3 .

Upon analysis of the VUV spectroscopic and chromaticity investigations on the new green-emitting VUV phosphors, were an optimized composition achieved. The PLE spectral studies show that Ca(La1-x-yTbxGdy)4Si3O13 exhibit significant absorption in the VUV range. The VUV PL intensity was found to enhance with Gd3 -doping. Furthermore, the 1931 CIE chromaticity coordinates of Ca(La,Gd)4Si3O13:Tb were found to be (0.286, 0.548), as compared to (0.230, 0.712) for Zn2SiO4:Mn2 as a reference.

Structure and Waveguide Properties of Sol-Gel Derived Gd2O3 Films

Pure and rare earth doped gadolinium oxide (Gd2O3) waveguide films were prepared by a simple sol-gel process and dip-coating method. Structure of Gd2O3 films annealed at different temperature was investigated by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. Oriented growth of (400) face of Gd2O3 has been observed when the films were deposited on amorphous substrate. The refractive index and thickness of films were determined by m-lines spectroscopy. The laser beam (λ= 632.8 nm) was coupled into the film by a prism coupler and the propagation length is about 3.5 cm. Luminescence properties of europium ions doped films were measured by waveguide fluorescence spectroscopy, which shows disordered environment for Eu^3 at 400℃.

Phase control of magnetron sputtering deposited Gd2O3 thin films as high-κ gate dielectrics

Gd2O3 thin films as high-κ gate dielectrics were deposited directly on Si(001) substrates by magnetron sputtering at a pressure of 1.3 Pa and different temperatures. X-ray diffraction results revealed that all the films grown from 450 to 570℃ were crystalline, and the Gd2O3 thin films consisted of a mixture of cubic and monoclinic phases. The growth temperature was a critical parameter for the phase constituents and their relative amount. Low temperature was favorable for the formation of cubic phase while higher temperature gave rise to more monoclinic phase. All the Gd2O3 thin films grown from different temperatures exhibited acceptable electrical properties, such as low leakage current density (JL) of 10-5 A/cm2 at zero bias with capacitance equivalent SiO2 thickness in the range of 6-13 nm. Through the comparison between films grown at 450 and 570℃, the existence of monoclinic phase caused an increase in JL by nearly one order of magnitude and a reduction of effective dielectric constant from 17 to 9.
