Dy3+掺杂CaWO4荧光粉体的制备及发光性能

采用固相陶瓷方法制备了Dy3+掺杂的CaWO4∶Dyx3+荧光粉体。采用XRD、SEM和FT-IR对制备粉体的微观结构进行了表征;采用荧光分析法研究了制备的荧光体的室温光致发光性能;探讨了掺杂剂Dy3+浓度对CaWO4∶Dyx3+荧光粉体的微结构和光致发光性能的影响。结果表明,制备的CaWO4∶Dyx3+荧光粉体为白钨矿结构,Dy3+的掺入会抑制CaWO4∶Dy3x+晶粒的生长。当Dy3+的掺入量为1%(摩尔分数)时,其在480nm(蓝)和575nm(黄)的发射强度达到最大;随着Dy3+浓度的增加,其特征发射峰(480nm和575nm)强度反而逐渐下降。     

Luminescence study on Eu(3+) doped Y(2)O(3) nanoparticles: particle size, concentration and core-shell formation effects

Nanoparticles of Eu(3+) doped Y(2)O(3) (core) and Eu(3+) doped Y(2)O(3) covered with Y(2)O(3) shell (core-shell) are prepared by urea hydrolysis for 3?h in ethylene glycol medium at a relatively low temperature of 140?°C, followed by heating at 500 and 900?°C. Particle sizes determined from x-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopic studies are 11 and 18?nm for 500 and 900?°C heated samples respectively. Based on the luminescence studies of 500 and 900?°C heated samples, it is confirmed that there is no particle size effect on the peak positions of Eu(3+) emission, and optimum luminescence intensity is observed from the nanoparticles with a Eu(3+) concentration of 4-5?at.%. A luminescence study establishes that the Eu(3+) environment in amorphous Y (OH)(3) is different from that in crystalline Y(2)O(3). For a fixed concentration of Eu(3+) doping, there is a reduction in Eu(3+) emission intensity for core-shell nanoparticles compared to that of core nanoparticles, and this has been attributed to the concentration dilution effect. Energy transfer from the host to Eu(3+) increases with increase of crystallinity.     

ZrO2和ZrO2:Dy3+纳米晶发光特性

采用液相沉淀法制备了不同掺杂浓度和尺寸的ZrO2和ZrO2:Dy纳米晶,研究了其发光特性.结果表明在纳米ZrO₂中,存在着宽带激发和发射,起源为电子在价带和导带之间的跃迁.在Dy³⁺掺杂的样品中,随着颗粒尺寸的长大,其发光增强.并且共掺杂Li⁺的样品发光强度被极大地提高.随着Dy³⁺浓度的变化,黄发射和蓝发射的强度比(Y/B)发生改变,且浓度猝灭是通过近邻激活剂间的交换作用进行的.     

Eu2+、Dy3+、Li+共掺杂CaSi2O2N2荧光粉的发光性能

采用高温固相反应法制备了一系列白光LED用CaSi2O2N2:0.05Eu2+,xDy3+,xLi+(0≤x≤0.03)荧光粉.利用X射线衍射仪对样品的物相结构进行了分析,结果表明:Dy3+和Li+离子的掺入没有改变CaSi2O2N2:Eu2+荧光粉的主晶相.利用荧光光谱仪对样品的发光性能进行了测试,发现所有样品的激发光谱均覆盖了从近紫外到蓝光的较宽范围,400 nm激发下得到的发射光谱为宽波段的单峰,峰值位于545 nm左右,是Eu2+离子5d-4f电子跃迁引起的.Dy3+离子掺杂可以提高CaSi2O2N2:Eu2+荧光粉的发光强度,Dy3+与Li+共掺杂可进一步提高荧光粉的发光强度,当Dy3+和Li+的掺杂量为1mol%时,荧光粉的发光强度达到最大值,是单掺杂Eu2+的荧光粉发光强度的157%.     

Gd~(3+)对(Y,Gd)BO_3:Eu~(3+)发光性质的影响

采用共沉淀法制备了YGB:Eu~(3+)红色荧光粉.XRD研究表明,Gd~(3+)的掺入使其晶胞参数增加,并引起一定程度的晶格畸变.YGB:Eu~(3+)中Eu~(3+)的VUV激发发射主要借助于基质吸收,而CTS亦起一定作用.YGB:Eu~(3+)的基质吸收带与CTS均有一定的红移,强度有一定变化.在UV区存在Gd~(3+)→,Eu~(3+)的能量传递.由于Eu~(3+)5s5p轨道对晶场的屏蔽作用,Gd~(3+)浓度基本不影响发射峰的位置.Gd~(3+)浓度的增加,色纯度有一定的改善.Gd~(3+)的掺入影响了晶体对称性并使晶体中A格位数目增加是主要原因.适度的晶格畸变有利于基质对能量的吸收,使Eu~(3+)辐射效率达到最大,适宜的Gd~(3+)的浓度约为0.3mol.     

Molten salt synthesis and luminescent properties of YVO4:Ln (Ln = Eu3+, Dy3+) nanophosphors

Eu3+ and Dy(3+)-doped YVO4 nanocrystallites were successfully prepared at 400 degrees C in equal moles of NaNO3 and KNO3 molten salts. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, transmission electronic microscopy (TEM), photoluminescence (PL) spectrum and lifetime were used to characterize the nanocrystallites. XRD results demonstrate that NaOH concentration and annealing temperature play important roles in phase purity and crystallinity of the nanocrystallites, the optimum NaOH concentration and annealing temperature being 6:40 and 400 degrees C respectively. TEM micrographs show the nanocrystallites are well crystallized with a cubic morphology in an average grain size of about 18 nm. Upon excitation of the vanadate group at 314 nm, YVO4:Eu3+ and YVO4:Dy3+ nanocrystallites exhibit the characteristic emission of Eu3+ and Dy3+, which indicates that there is an energy transfer from the vanadate group to the rare earth ions. Moreover, the structure and luminescent properties of the nanocrystallites were compared with their bulk counterparts with same composition in detail.

YVO_4:Eu~(3+)纳米晶的沉淀合成及发光性质

采用沉淀法合成了Eu3+不同掺杂浓度的YVO4:Eu3+纳米晶。利用X射线衍射和荧光光谱对材料的结构、发光性能进行了研究。XRD研究结果表明:在较低温度下合成的样品为四方相YVO4,纳米粒子的晶粒尺寸为7nm。发射光谱和激发光谱的研究表明:宽的激发带主要来自于Eu-O和V-O的电荷迁移带。发射峰来自于5D0-7FJ的跃迁。纳米YVO4:Eu3+的猝灭浓度为12%,荧光寿命随Eu3+离子的浓度的增加而缩短。     

Enhanced emissions of Eu(3+) by energy transfer from ZnO quantum dots embedded in SiO(2) glass

SiO(2):Eu(3+) based bulk composites containing ZnO quantum dots were synthesized by an in situ sol-gel process. The quantum dots homogeneously distributed among the SiO(2) glass matrix exhibited a broad ultraviolet emission band centered at 385?nm. The ZnO ultraviolet luminescence intensity decreased monotonically with increasing Eu(3+) doping concentration, while the Eu(3+) visible emission was intensified significantly by the precipitation of ZnO quantum dots, ascribed to the energy transfer from ZnO to Eu(3+). The Eu(3+) luminescence at 612?nm for the sample with 20?mol% ZnO was about ten times stronger than that for the sample without ZnO. The influence of ZnO or Eu(3+) concentration on the energy transfer process is discussed.     

Luminescence Characteristics and Energy Transfer Machanismof LaOBr:Tb~(3+) (Dy~(3+))

The rare earth luminescence materials LaOBrfTb3+(Dy3+) were synthesized at high temperature,and the structure and luminescence characteristics were studied. The co-doping Dy3+ may make the energy of 5D3 of Tb3+ transfer to 5D4 level, which makes the emission of 5D4-7FJ (J=0,1... 6), specially of 5D4-7F5, enhance obviously, and the total brightness is increased by about 40% in comparison with the samples without Dy3+ cations, as a result of the energy transfer of dipole-dipole interaction.     

Ce~(3+)和Y~(3+)掺杂对Ca_2MgSi_2O_7:Eu~(2+)荧光粉发光性能的影响

在还原气氛下,采用高温固相法合成了Ca_2MgSi_2O_7:Eu~(2+),Rs~(3+) (R~(3+)=Ce~(3+),Y~(3+))系列荧光粉.结果表明,少量稀土离子的掺入没有改变晶体的物相结构.在Ca_2MgSi_2o_7:Euz~(2+)荧光粉中,Ce~(3+)和y~(3+)的掺入对荧光强度的影响较大,且与掺杂元素、掺杂量相关.当掺杂Ce~(3+)和Y~(3+)的量分别为0.007mol和0.05mol时,所得荧光粉在532nm处的发光强度分别是未掺杂时的127%和117%.结果表明,在Ca_2MgSi_2O_7中Ce~(3+)与Eu~(2+)存在能量传递,Ce~(3+)的加入显著敏化了Eu~(2+)的发光,导致荧光强度的进一步提高;Y~(3+)的掺杂可以使荧光粉的粒径减小,并导致基质中的电荷缺陷而敏化Eu~(2+)发光,从而使荧光强度进一步提高.     

Strong photoluminescence through up and down conversion in Tm(3+)/Ho(3+):LaOF nanoparticles

Efficient up and down frequency conversions in Tm(3+) and Ho(3+) doped LaOF tetragonal nanocrystals have been investigated. Bright fluorescence emissions are obtained in co-doped Tm(3+)/Ho(3+):LaOF tetragonal nanocrystals through UV and infrared excitation. Green florescence from doped Ho(3+) ions, which can be clearly seen with bared eyes, is obtained when Tm(3+) ion is excited. Specific mechanism of the cross relaxation between doped ions is explored through spectroscopic measurements in time and frequency domains. About 90% energy transfer efficiency is obtained when the weak radiative and nonradiative relaxations are neglected.     

Photoluminescence and thermoluminescence properties of tricalcium phosphate phosphors doped with dysprosium and europium

The suitability of calcium phosphate crystals for thermoluminescence dosimetry (TLD) applications is investigated, owing to their equivalence to bone mineral. The α and β phases of tricalcium phosphate (TCP) were synthesized through wet precipitation and high temperature solid state routes and doped with Dy and Eu. The photoluminescence and thermoluminescence studies of the phosphors have been carried out. The TL properties were found to be highly dependent on the method of preparation of the material. Eu doping gave good PL emission, whereas Dy doping was more efficient in TL emission. β-TCP was found to be less TL sensitive than α-TCP, yet it was identified as a better phosphor material owing to its better fading characteristics. The dependence of TL of β-TCP: Dy on the energy and dose of radiation, and on the doping concentration were studied. The TL intensity was observed to fade exponentially during a storage period of 20 days, but it stabilized at 70% of the initial value after 30 days. The optimum doping concentration was found to be 0.5 mol%.     

Site-selective spectroscopy in Sm(3+)-doped sol-gel-derived nano-glass-ceramics containing SnO(2) quantum dots

Nano-glass-ceramics of composition 95SiO(2)-5SnO(2) doped with 0.4 Sm(3+) (mol%) were synthesized by the thermal treatment of precursor sol-gel glasses. Structural and luminescence measurements were carried out. The precipitated SnO(2) nanocrystals in the glass matrix constitute a wide bandgap quantum-dot system with size comparable to the bulk exciton Bohr radius. A site-selective excitation, by energy transfer from the semiconductor host, reveals that a fraction of the Sm(3+) ions are incorporated in the SnO(2) nanocrystals, whereas the rest remains in the silica glassy phase. An evolution in the Sm(3+) emission spectra has been observed when the SnO(2) nanocrystals are excited with different UV wavelengths, which has been ascribed to selective excitation of nanocrystal sets with predetermined size.     

Luminescent properties and characterization of one dimensional Gd(2)O(3):Eu(3+) phosphor nano-wire for field emission application

Gd(2)O(3):Eu(3+) nano-wire phosphors embedded in SBA-15 silica templates were synthesized using a combination of the sol-gel method and hydrothermal reactions followed by a sintering process at 1000?°C. The crystal structure of Gd(2)O(3):Eu(3+) was confirmed using x-ray diffraction. Observation using transmission electron microscopy shows that the nano-wire diameters were very uniform in the 7-9?nm range. In comparison with bulk Gd(2)O(3):Eu(3+) materials, we found that the photo-luminescent property of the nano-wire was different. The analysis shows that the main nano-wire emission peaks were at 585, 597, 613 and 620?nm. The CIE value (x = 0.62, y = 0.38) indicates that the nano-wire emitted a pink colour and not red as for the bulk material. The field emission experimental results agreed well with the photo-luminescent analysis results.     

Photoluminescence and energy transfer study of Er3+ and Dy3+ codoped tellurite glasses

Photoluminescence properties of the Er(3+)-Dy3+ codoped tellurite glasses were studied by absorption and visible emission spectra, which revealed luminescence bands of both Er3+ and Dy3+ when pumping with the wavelength of 325 nm. The concentration quenching occurred as Dy3+ concentration increased beyond 3 mol%. The dependence of Er3+ characteristic emission on Dy3+ concentration indicated energy transfer process between Er3+ and Dy3+. The chromaticity coordinates of these glasses are close to white light, which implies that these glasses might be potential candidates for white lighting through an appropriate combination.     

Preparation and the luminescent properties of Tb3+-doped Gd2O3 fluorescent nanofibers via electrospinning

Tb(3+)-doped Gd(2)O(3) (Gd(2)O(3):Tb(3+)) nanofibers were prepared via a simple electrospinning technique using poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and rare-earth acetate tetrahydrates (Ln(CH(3)COO)(3)·4H(2)O (Ln = Gd, Tb)) as precursors. The obtained nanofibers have an average diameter of about 80 nm and are composed of pure cubic Gd(2)O(3) phase. A possible formation mechanism for the nanofibers is proposed on the basis of the experimental results, which reveals that PEO acts as the structure directing template during the whole electrospinning and subsequent calcination process. The luminescent properties of the nanofibers were investigated in detail. The nanofibers exhibit a favorable fluorescent property symbolized by the characteristic green emission (545 nm) resulting from the 5D4-->7F5 transition of Tb(3+). Concentration quenching occurs when the Tb(3+) concentration is 3 at.%, indicating that the Gd(2)O(3):Tb(3+) nanofibers have an optimum luminescent intensity under such a doping concentration.     

Polyol-mediated synthesis and photoluminescent properties of Ce3+ and/or Tb3+-doped LaPO4 nanoparticles

Rare-earth ion (Ce3+, Tb3+) doped LaPO4 nanoparticles were prepared by the polyol method and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, and lifetimes. The results of XRD indicate that the as-prepared nanoparticles are well-crystallized at 160 degrees C and assigned to the monoclinic monazite structure of the LaPO4 phase. The obtained LaPO4:Ce3+, Tb3+ nanoparticles are spherical with narrow size distribution and average size of 20 nm. The doped rare-earth ions show their characteristic emission in LaPO4 nanoparticles, i.e., Ce3+ 5d-4f and Tb3+ 5D4-7FJ (J = 6-3) transitions, respectively. The optimum doping concentration for Tb3+ in La(0.8-x)Ce0.2TbxPO4 nanoparticles is determined to be 15 mol% (x = 0.15). The luminescence decay curves of Ce3+ in LaPO4:Ce3+ and LaPO4:Ce3+, Tb3+ nanoparticles present a single-exponential behavior, and the lifetimes (tau) of Ce3+ decrease with increasing Tb3+ concentrations (at the constant Ce3+ concentration) in LaPO4:Ce3+, Tb3+ nanoparticles due to the energy transfer from Ce3+ to Tb3+. The energy-transfer efficiency from Ce3+ to Tb3+ was calculated, which depends on the doping concentrations of Tb3+ if the concentration of Ce3+ is fixed.     

Synthesis and luminescence properties of rare earth doped gamma-ray-irradiated GdCa4O(BO3)3 phosphors

Undoped and rare earth (RE = Ce, Dy, and Eu) doped GdCa₄O(BO₃)₃ phosphors were synthesized by solid-state diffusion technique. Formation of the sample was confirmed by taking X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of the sample. Photoluminescence (PL) emission spectrum showed characteristic emission of RE doped in the GdCa₄O(BO₃)₃ sample. It is observed that doping of RE ion initially enhanced the TL yield, attained an optimum TL for a particular concentration of dopant (i.e., 0.5 mol%) then decreased with further increase in dopant concentration for all the samples. We found that Ce is the best activator for enhancing the TL yield in GdCa₄O(BO₃)₃ system. Fading of TL intensity of the sample was studied and it is found that fading of the TL is about 5% over the period of 15 days. The simple glow curve, linear response to γ-ray dose and less fading; makes the GdCa₄O(BO₃)₃:Ce(0.5 mol%) phosphors a suitable candidate for TL dosimetry.
