Preparation and Long Persistence Red Luminescence of M0.2Ca0.8TiO3 ： Pr^3＋ （M = Mg^2＋ , Sr^2＋ , Ba^2＋ , Zn^2＋）

M0.2Ca0.8TiO3 : Pr^3 (M = Mg^2 , Sr^2 , Ba^2 , Zn^2 ) long persistence red phosphors were prepared by solid state reaction. The influence of the partially replacing Ca^2 in CaTiO3 with Mg^2 , Sr^2 , Ba^2 , Zn^2 on the excitation spectra, the emission spectra and the long persistence properties were studied. The results suggest that certain quantity of Mg^2 , Sr^2 , Ba^2 , Zn^2 which partially replace Ca^2 can enhance the luminescent intensity and prolong the afterglow persistence of the samples. The intensity of Mg0.2Ca0.8TiO3: Pr^3 is above all of the samples. Take Mg0.2Ca0.8TiO3:Pr^3 as the basic sample, the influence of Pr^3 concentrations (C (Pr^3 )) on the long afterglow properties were also studied.The results suggest that when the C (Pr^3 ) is 0.10% (tool fraction) the intensity of the sample is the highest. The excitation spectra of all these samples show broad band spectra ranging from 300 - 500 nm peaking at about 342 nm. The emission spectra also exhibit a broad band peaking at 613 nm (CaTiO3: Pr^3 is 612 nm). XRD research indicates that the crystalline phases change due to the replacement of divalent metal ions. The research on the thermoluminescence spectra of Mg0.2Ca0.8TiO3:Pr^3 indicates that the peak is at 107.35℃ and the depth of the trap energy is about 0.852 eV.

（Zn, Ca） Solid-Solution Behavior and Its Effect on Luminescence Properties in Ca1-x Znx TiO3 ： 0.002Pr^3＋ Phosphors

Nominal composition of Ca1-xZnxTiO3 ： 0. 002Pr^3 ＋ （x = 0. 000 - 0. 200） phosphors were prepared by conventional solid reaction route. XRD and PL measurements were used to investigate the solid-solution structure and luminescence properties of Zn-doped Ca1-xZnxTiO3：0.002Pr^3＋ phosphors. The effect of solid-solution structure formed by substitution between Ca^2 ＋ and Zn^2＋ ions on the luminescent properties was analyzed. The results reveal that, with the increase of Zn substitution content below 0.010, lattice parameters and the intensity of excitation peak at both 260 and 330 nm as well as the corresponding 610 nm emission intensity are monotonously decreased quickly in a similar tendency. Also, the evolution of luminescence intensity and crystal cell parameters against Zn doping concentration are in good agreement. Above results are closely related with the structure change within Ca1- xZnxTiO3：0.002Pr^3＋ solid-solution phase formed by the Zn ions substitution for the Ca sites. Present study reveals that the solid-solution structure formed by substitution between Ca^2＋ and Zn^2＋ ions has significant effect on the luminescence properties of single phase Ca1-xZnxTiO3：0.002Pr^3＋ phosphors.     

Preparation and Characterization of Sol-Gel Derived Au Nanoparticle Dispersed Y2O3：Eu Films

Gold nanoparticles dispersed Y2O3 films were prepared through a sol-gel method by using yttrium acetate and Au nanoparticles colloid as precursors. The films were characterized by X-ray diffraction （XRD）, transmission electron microscopy （TEM） and UV-VIS absorption spectra. XRD patterns and TEM images of Y2O3 ＋ Au films give the same resuits on structure and particle size as that of pure Y2O3 films. The surface plasma resonance （SPR） of Au nanoparticles in Y2O3 ＋ Au film was observed around 550 nm in the absorption spectrum and its position shifts to red with increasing annealing temperature is caused by the increase of dielectric constant of Y2O3 matrix and the size of Au nanoparticles. The second and third order nonlinear optical effects of Y2O3 ＋ Au films were also observed. The photoluminescent properties of Y2O3 ： Eu ＋ Au films were investigated and results indicate that there exist an energy transfer from Eu^3 ＋ to Au nanoparticles and this energy transfer decreases the emission of Eu^3 ＋ in Y2O3 ： Eu ＋ Au film.     

Luminescence Properties of Tb^3＋ -Doped LuAG Films Prepared by Pechini Sol-Gel Method

Lu3Al5O12（LuAG） thin films with different Tb^3＋ concentration were prepared on carefully cleaned （111 ） silicon wafer by a Peehini process and dip-coating technique. Heat treatment was performed in the temperature range from 800 to 1100 ℃. The crystal structure was analyzed by XRD. The results show that LuAG film starts to crystallize at about 900 ℃, and the particle size increases with the sintering temperature. Excitation and emission spectra of Tb^3＋ doped LuAG films were measured. The effects of heat-treatment temperature and doping concentration of Th3 ＋ on the luminescent properties were also investigated. For a comparison study, Th^3＋-doped LuAG powders were also prepared by the same sol-gel method.

Effects of La^3＋ Non-Uniformly Doping in TiO2 Films on Photocatalytic Activities

TiO2 thin films non-uniformly doped by La^3＋ were prepared by sol-gel method. The comparison of thin film activities, which was characterized by photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange, shows that doping modes have great activities. The non-uniformly effects on photocatalytic doped TiO2 films resuh in good photocatalytic activities with an optimal concentration; about 0. 5% （ atom fraction ）. UV-Vis transmittance spectra indicate that the absorption edges of these TiO2 thin films shift to ward longer wave- lengths remarkably, and electrochemical behavior also reveales that e^- -h^＋ pairs are prone to formation and separation under UV irradiation. The mechanism of photocatalytic activities are enhanced by La^3＋ non-uniformly doping was discussed on the analogy of the theory of “window effect” of solar cell heterojunction.     

Preparation and Characterization of Red Luminescent Ca0.8Zn0.2TiO3: Pr3+, Na+ Nanophosphor

Nanophosphor with the nominal composition of Ca0.8Zn0.2TiO3∶Pr3 , Na (CZTOPN) was synthesized at relatively low temperature by the sol-gel method. Metal ions were dispersed by citric acid in ethylene glycol solvent and then react with Ti(OC4H9)4 to form sol and gel. The decomposition process of the precursor, and crystallization and particle size of CZTOPN were examined by thermal analysis (TG-DSC), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scan election microscopy (SEM). Results of TG-DSC and XRD reveal that the composition of Ca0.8Zn0.2TiO3∶Pr3 , Na changes with the sintering temperature. SEM data indicate that the diameter of particles is under 50 nm even if the sintering temperature increases to 1000 ℃. In contrast to a solid state reaction, the excitation spectra of samples synthesized by the sol-gel method shift blue about 10 nm and the emission intensity at 617 nm increases significantly.     

Enhancement of luminescence and afterglow in Ca0.8Zn0.2TiO3:Pr3+ by Nb5+ substitution for Ti4+

Nb5+ doped Ca0.8Zn0.2TiO3:Pr3+ red long afterglow phosphors were synthesized by solid-state reaction methods. X-ray diffraction, photoluminescence spectroscopy and thermally stimulated spectrometry were used to investigate the effects of Nb5+ content on the crystal characteristics and luminescent properties of Ca0.8Zn0.2Ti1-xNbxO3:Pr3+ phosphors. The results showed that the addition of a small quantity of Nb5+ had negligible effect on the crystal characteristics of Ca0.8Zn0.2Ti1-xNbxO3:Pr3+, but it could change the trapping parameters (the depth of trap, frequency factors and the concentration of trapped charges at t=0) of Ca0.8Zn0.2Ti1-xNbxO3:Pr3+ phosphors, and then led to the enhance-ment of red fluorescence and phosphorescence at 612 nm originating from 1D2→3H4 transition of Pr3+. Both of the red fluorescence intensity and afterglow time reached the largest values in the sample of Ca0.8Zn0.2Ti1-xNbxO3:Pr3+ with x=0.05. The afterglow time of Ca0.8Zn0.2Ti0.95Nb0.05O3:Pr3+ phosphors lasted for over 24 min (≥1 mcd/m2) when the excited source was cut off.

Luminescent properties of Ca2SiO4：Eu^3＋ red phosphor for trichromatic white light emitting diodes

The luminescent properties of Eu^3＋doped Ca2SiO4 red phosphors synthesized by the flux fusion reaction method were investigated. It was found that the excitation spectrum included two regions： the weak excitation band below 325 nm and strong narrow peaks above 325 nm. The main peak of the excitation band was located at 400 nm. The peaks located at 290 nm were assigned to the combination of the charge transfer transition of O-Eu, peaks above 325 nm （325, 385, 400, 470, 511, and 539 nm） were assigned to the f-f transitions of Eu^3＋. The emission spectrum was dominated by the red peak located at 612 nm due to the electric dipole transition of ^5D0-^7F2. In addition, the effects of the Eu^3＋ content and charge compensators of Li^＋, Na^＋, K^＋, and Cl^- ions on the emission intensity were investigated. The experiment results suggested that the strongest emission was obtained when the concentration of the Eu^3＋ ions was 0.3 mol^-1, and Li^＋ ions gave the best improvement to enhance the emission intensity. Ca2SiO4：Eu^3＋, Li^＋ was thus suitable for low-cost trichromatic white light emitting diodes （WLED） based on UV InGaN chip.     

Photoluminescent properties of Ca2Gd8（SiO4）6O2： Dy^3＋ 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 various functional coating films. Compounds with the apatite structure are very suitable host lattices for various luminescent ions. Ca2RE8（SiO4）6O2 （ RE=Y, Gd, La ） is a kind of ternary rare-earth-metal silicate with oxyapatite structure, which has been used as host material for the luminescence of various rare earth and mercury-like ions. In this article, Ca2Gd8（SiO4）6O2：Dy^3＋phosphor films were dip-coated on quartz glass substrates through the sol-gel process. X-ray diffraction （XRD）, atomic force microscopy （AFM）, photoluminescence （PL） spectra, as well as lifetimes were used to characterize the resulting films. AFM study revealed that the phosphor films consisted of homogeneous particles. The Dy^3＋ showed its characteristic emission in crystalline phosphor films, i.e., ^4F9/2-^6H15/2 and ^4F9/2-^6H13/2.
