Study on luminescent properties of Eu3+ doped new type yttrium tungsten oxide nanophosphors

In this paper, a novel nanophosphor, Y10W2O21:Eu, was synthesized through co-precipitation which is a simple and low-costing method. The structure and morphology of the nanocrystal samples were characterized by using XRD and FE-SEM. The emission spectra, excitation spectra and fluorescence decay curves were measured. J-O parameters, quantum efficiencies of Eu3+ 5D0 energy level, color coordinates and Huang-Rhys factor of Y10W2O21:Eu nanophosphors were calculated. The results indicate that EU3+ 5D0-7F2 red luminescence at 610 nm can be effectively excited by 394 nm near-UV light and 464 nm blue light in Y10W2O21 host, which is similar to the familiar Eu3+ doped tungstate phosphors (e.g., Gd2(WO4)3:Eu, CaWO4:Eu). Besides, compared with the other types of tungstate phosphors, a less expensive tungsten was used, which can effectively reduce cost. Therefore, the Y10W2O21:Eu red nanophosphors may have a potential application for white LED.     

Hydrothermal synthesis and luminescent properties of GdVO4 : Eu3+ nanophosphors

Eu³⁺-doped GdVO₄ has been synthesised via hydrothermal method by altering the hydrothermal temperature, reaction time and surfactant. The microstructure and morphology information of the phosphors were investigated via the techniques of X-ray powder diffraction and scanning electronic microscopy, which show that the phosphors wear tetragonal phase and the products present various regular morphologies under different reaction conditions such as bulk and nanoparticle. Moreover, the morphologies of the products have been controlled by altering reaction temperature. In addition, the surfactant was also included to control the morphologies of the products and the phosphors present different morphologies. All the phosphors exhibit the characteristic fluorescence of Eu ion (⁵D₀ → ⁷F₂ and ⁵D₀ → ⁷F₂). The electric dipole transition ⁵D₀ → ⁷F₂ of Eu³⁺ is dominant indicating that most sites of Eu³⁺ ions in GdVO₄ have no inversion centre. Furthermore, we found that the reaction time and the morphologies have great influence on optical properties.

Controllable morphology and high photoluminescence of (Y, Gd)(V, P) O4:Eu3+ nanophosphors synthesized by two-step reactions

Multi-ion doped YVO(4):Eu(3+) nanophosphors with high photoluminescence intensity were successfully prepared by a two-step reaction process for the first time, including YVO(4):Eu(3+) seeds synthesized by hydrothermal reaction and co-doping P(5+) and Gd(3+) in a sol-gel process. X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and photoluminescence spectroscopy were adopted to detect the structure, grain size, morphology and optical properties of the nanophosphors, respectively. Owning to the template-induced effect of the seeds, the morphology and size of the nanophosphors could be controlled by adjusting the molar ratios between the seeds and doping ions. The size of these nanophosphors increased as P(5+) and Gd(3+) co-doped. However, most of the samples kept approximately spherical morphology and narrow size distribution. The composition-optimized (Y, Gd)(V, P)O(4):Eu(3+) nanophosphors with spherical morphology in the 80-100 nm range exhibit better red emission and superior color saturation under vacuum ultraviolet excitation compared with that of the commercial phosphor (Y, Gd)BO(3):Eu(3+).

Luminescence and phonon properties of nanocrystalline Bi2WO6:Eu3+ photocatalyst prepared from amorphous precursor

Bi2WO6:Eu3+ samples were prepared by mechanically activated metathesis reaction and subsequent annealing at different temperatures of the as-prepared precursor. X-ray, TEM, Raman, IR, diffuse reflectance and luminescence studies of the prepared samples are presented. It was found that variation of the particle size have significant impact on phonon and emission properties of this material. It was observed that intensity of some Raman and IR bands significantly decreases and the bandwidth of Raman, IR and Eu3+ emission lines significantly increases with decreasing particles size. Moreover, it was observed that intensity ratios I((5)D0-(7)F2)/I((5)D0-(7)F1) and I(5D0_(7)F0)/I((5)D0-(7)F1) increase with decreasing particle size. The observed changes were attributed to phonon confinement effect, decrease in the orthorhombic distortion of the unit cell and concentration increase of surface defects.

A facile preparation and the luminescent properties of Eu3+-doped Y2O2SO4 nanopieces

The europium(III)-doped yttrium oxysulfate (Y₂O₂SO₄:Eu³⁺) nanopieces have been prepared via electrospinning followed by calcination at 1000 °C in mixed gas of sulfur dioxide and air. Based on the experimental results, a possible formation mechanism for the nanopieces is that the nanopieces are determined by the directing template of electrospun nanoribbons and the multilayer crystal structure of Y₂O₂SO₄. Besides, the nanopieces show excellent luminescent properties with emissions at 581, 589, 597, 653, 619, and 697 nm resulting from the ⁵D₀ → ⁷F_J (J = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4) transition of Eu³⁺. The peaks of charge transfer and ⁵D₀ → ⁷F₂ transition of Eu³⁺ obviously have red shifts comparing to those of both Y₂O₃:Eu³⁺ nanoribbons and commercial Y₂O₃:Eu³⁺. Moreover, the nanopieces exhibit stronger intensities than the Y₂O₃:Eu³⁺ in excitation and emission spectra. Concentration quenching in the nanopieces occurs when Eu³⁺ concentration is 11 mol%, indicating that the nanopieces have an optimum luminescent intensity under this doping concentration.

Synthesis and luminescent properties of Eu3+ and Dy3+ doped BiPO4 phosphors for near UV-based white LEDs

The phosphors BiPO₄:Eu³⁺ co-doped with Dy³⁺ were synthesized by the conventional solid-state reaction method. XRD and scanning electron microscopy results showed that the crystalline phase of the samples BiPO₄:Eu³⁺ transforms from high-temperature monoclinic phase to low-temperature monoclinic phase with the increase of Dy³⁺ concentration. The photoluminescence properties of the samples showed that the colors shifting from red–orange area to blue–green area are close to those of ideal white light by readjusting the doping concentration ratio of Eu³⁺ and Dy³⁺. The Eu³⁺and Dy³⁺ doped BiPO₄ phosphors may be potential applications in white light near-UV light-emitting diodes.     

Synthesis of green-emitting (Gd,La, Tb)2O(WO4)2 phosphors

Green-emitting (Gd_1−x−yLa_xTb_y)₂O(WO₄)₂ (0 ⩽ x ⩽ 0.05, 0.05 ⩽ y ⩽ 0.15) phosphors were synthesized in a single phase form by the conventional solid-state reaction method, and their photoluminescent properties were characterized. The (Gd_1−x−yLa_xTb_y)₂O(WO₄)₂ phosphors showed strong and broad excitation bands from 230 to 350 nm, corresponding to the energy transition from the 4f⁸ to 4f⁷5d configuration of Tb³⁺ and the charge-transfer (CT) transition of O²⁻−W⁶⁺. The oxytungstate phosphors exhibited typical emission peaks assigned to the transition from ⁵D₄ to ⁷F_J (J = 6, 5, 4, and 3) of Tb³⁺, and the luminescence emission intensity was effectively enhanced by the La³⁺ doping into the host Gd₂O(WO₄)₂ lattice. The highest green emission intensity was obtained for (Gd_0.87La_0.03Tb_0.10)₂O(WO₄)₂, where the relative emission intensity was 63% that of a commercial green-emitting (La_0.52Ce_0.31Tb_0.17)PO₄ phosphor.
