Influence of B2O3 on Spectroscopic Properties of Er^3＋/Yb^3＋ Co-Doped Tungsten-Tellurite Glasses

A series of novel Er^3＋/Yb^3＋ co-doped （85- x ） TeO2-15WO3-xB2O3 （TWB;x=2%,5%,8%（mole fraction） ） glasses were prepared. Influence of B203 on the spectroscopic properties of Er^3＋/Yb^3＋ co-doped tungsten-tellurite glasses were investigated. It is found that the intensity of 1.5μm fluorescence, lifetime of the ^4I13/2 level and upconversion fluorescence all decrease with the increase of B2O3 content. The product of full width at half maximum （FWHM） and stimulated emission cross-section （σe^peak） of Er^3＋ ：^4I13/2→^4I15/2 transition has an optimum when B203 is 5% （mole fraction）.

Luminescent characteristics of Ba3Y2（BO3）4：Eu^3＋ phosphor for white LED

The Ba3Y2（BO3）4：Eu^3＋ phosphor was synthesized using a high temperature solid-state reaction method and the luminescent characteristics were investigated. The emission spectrum exhibited one strong red emission at 613 nm, corresponding to the electric dipole 5D0-TF2 transition of Eu^3＋, under 365 nm excitation. The excitation spectrum of 613 nm indicated that the Ba3Y2（BO3）n：Eu^3＋ phosphor was effectively excited by ultraviolet （UV） （254, 365 and 400 nm） and blue （470 nm） light. The effect of Eu^3＋ concentration on the 613 nm emission of the Ba3Y2（BO3）n：Eu^3＋ phosphor was measured. The results showed that the emission intensity increased with increasing Eu^3＋ concentration, and then decreased. The CIE color coordinates of Ba3Y2（BO3）4：Eu^3＋ phosphor were x=0.641 and y=0.359 at 15 mol.% Eu^3＋.     

Optical Spectroscopy of Er^3＋ and Er^3＋/Yb^3＋ Co-doped Bi2O3-GeO2-B2O3-ZnO Glasses

The （60 - x）Bi2O3 - xGeO2-30B2O3-10ZnO （x = 5, 10, 20, 30 molar percent） glasses doped with Er^3＋ and Er^3＋/Yb^3＋ were fabricated using the melting method. The thermal stability of the glasses was studied with their DTA curves. The results show that the difference between the glass transition temperature and the crystallization onset temperature increases with the increase of GeO2 content, indicating that the thermal stability of the glass has become better. The absorption spectra were recorded and the stimulated emission cross sections were calculated using the McCumber theory. The Ω2, O4, and Ω6 parameters,the transition probability, the radiative lifetime, and the fluorescence branch ratio of Er^3＋ for optical transition were calculated from their absorption spectra in terms of reduced matrix U^（t）（λ = 2, 4, 6） character for optical transitions. The infrared emission of Er^3＋ was measured upon excitation with 970 nm light and the full width at half-maximum （FWHM） was estimated from the emission spectra. The pumping efficiency and the intensity of the emission at the 1.54 μm band of Er^3＋ were enhanced considerably by co-doping Yb^3＋ .     

Properties of Local Structure Surrounding Eu3＋ Ion in Various Niobate-Silicate Glasses

A Series of niobate-silicate glasses doped with Eu3 ions were prepared. The emission, phonon-side band spectra, fluorescence line narrowing spectroscopy and fluorescence lifetimes in these glasses were studied. The intensity parameters and crystal field parameter of Eu3 were obtained. The results indicate that the intensity ratio of the electric-dipole to magnetic-dipole transition and the intensity parameter Ω2 increase with the increasing concentration of Nb2Os, indicating that the symmetry becomes lower, the Eu-O bonds become stronger and the covalency of Eu-O bond increases. The value of B20 decreases with the increasing concentration of Nb2O5, indicating that the distance between the Eu3 ion and oxygen decreases and the Eu-O bond becomes strong, corresponding to the results of the former. As the concentration of Nb2O5 increases, the electron-phonon coupling becomes stronger, thus the nonradiative transition rate of 5Do becomes larger and the lifetime of 5D0 becomes shorter.

Multi-wavelength excitable europium-doped borosilicate glasses for orangered emission：composition-induced structure and valence variation

Europium-doped borosilicate glasses were prepared by melt-quenching procedure in the air.The mixed valence of Eu 2+ and Eu 3+ was identified by photoluminescence spectrum and electron paramagnetic resonance(EPR).The existence of mixed valence was observed owing to the unequivalent substitution and de-polymerization network of the as-prepared borosilicate glasses.The variation of the glass composition in B 2 O 3 /BaO ratios changed the stability of the Eu 3+ ions distinctly.In particular,as-prepared borosilicate glasses exhibited a tri-wavelength light excitable spectra centered at 397,466 and 534 nm to give the broadened orange-red emission at around 592 and 617 nm,due to supersensitive transitions of Eu 3+ ions.This simultaneous tri-wavelength excitation happened to correspond with the emitting wavelength from near ultraviolet,blue AlInGaN chips and that from YAG:Ce 3+.The total quantum yield(QY) of the Eu-doped glasses under 466 nm excitation was evaluated to be 10%,potentially providing a versatile combination with the europium-doped borosilicate glasses for red component addition to improve the quality of white light.     

Citrate sol-gel combustion preparation and photoluminescence properties of YAG:Ce phosphors

Yellow-emitting YAG:Ce3+ nanocrystalline phosphors were prepared by citrate sol-gel combustion method using citric acid as the fuel and chelating agent. The influence of mole ratio of citric acid to metallic ions (MRCM), pH value of the solution, calcination temperature and Ce-doped concentration on the structures and properties of as-prepared powders were investigated in detail. Higher crystallinity and better luminescence performance powders were obtained at MRCM=2, pH=3 and the calcination temperature of 1200 °C. The phosphors exhibited the characteristic broadband visible luminescence of YAG:Ce. The optimum concentration of Ce3+ was 1.0 mol.%, and the concentration quenching was derived from the reciprocity between electric dipole and electric quadrupole (d-q). Especially, the pH value of the solution was a key factor to obtain a stable sol-gel system and then obtain pure and homogeneous rare earth ions doped YAG phosphors at a lower tem-perature. The Y3Al5O12:Ce0.03 phosphor with optimized synthesis-condition and composition had a similar luminescence intensity with the commercial phosphor YAG:Ce.
