Interestingly, the white-light-emitting UCNPs can be obtained via a complex method of tridoping lanthanide ions such as Yb^3＋, Er^3＋, and Tm^3＋. We herein report that an excellent white UCL can be obtained from Yb/Tm double-doped ZnO. In this system, the blue and red UCL-emissions around 475 and 652 nm originate from ^1G4→^3H6 and ^1G4→^3F4 transition of Tm^3＋, respectively, and the green one can be attributed to the defect states （oxygen va- cancies） luminescence （DSL） of the ZnO host. Meanwhile, the fine nanostructure of ZnO：Yb/Tm is prepared by adjusting the concentration of OH-. Particularly, the one dimentional pencil-shaped nanorods with high aspect ratio achieve a strong green DSL emission due to the high concentration of oxygen vacancy. The oxygen vacancy defects play an irreplaceable role in affecting the intensities of blue and red UCL by acting as the intermediate state in the energy transfer process. More importantly, we demonstrate that the DSL and UCL can be combined into systems, paving a new road for obtaining the white UCL emission.展开更多
