The effects of different calcining temperatures and fluxes on the reflective property of Sm2O2S were investigated. The phase composition, morphology, and reflectivity of the powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer (UVPC). The results showed that pure phase of Sm202S could be obtained with Na2CO3 as flux above 950~C, and the reflectivity decreased with the calcination temperature increasing. Compared with other samarium compounds, the reflectivity at 1064 nm of Sm2O2S was the lowest. Different fluxes had great impact on the phase composition, particle morphology, and reflectivity of the products. In short, Sm2O2S was suitable as a kind of absorbent against 1064 nm laser.展开更多

Both vacuum and solution approaches have enabled the fabrication of Zn(O,S) films. However they either require extreme conditions and high energy consumption for synthesis, or suffer from lack of controllability mainly due to the thermodynamic and kinetic distinction between Zn O and Zn S during film growth. Here we demonstrated an effective electrodeposition route to obtain high-quality Zn(O,S) thin films in a controllable manner. Importantly, tartaric acid was employed as a secondary complexing agent in the electrolyte to improve the film morphology, as well as to adjust other key properties such as composition and absorption. To elucidate the vital role that tartaric acid played, thermodynamic and kinetic processes of electrodeposition was investigated and discussed in detail. The accumulative contribution has shed light on further exploit of Zn(O,S) with tunable properties and optimization of the corresponding electrodeposition process, for the application in thin film solar cells.展开更多

The upconversion optical characteristics and brightness of the blue (Y2O2SYb,Tm), green (Y2O2S: Yb,Er), red (Y2O3Yb,Er) emitter were also investigated, and a novel method was successfully developed for the brightness measurement of upconversion luminescence (UPL). It is shown that a white color can be obtained by the appropriate mixture of these primary blue, green and red emissions components. The Er3+ ions exhibit different upconversion mechanism in Y2O2S and Y2O3 host materials. The rare earth oxysulfide is an efficient upconversion matrix. The UPL brightness of Y2O2S: Yb,Er is 6.5 times higher than that of Y2O3: Yb,Er, and Y2O2S: Yb,Er shows UPL brightness of 1100 cd/m2 under 5.56 W/cm2 power density using a 980 nm laser diode.展开更多

Annealing of lanthanide nitrates at total concentration of 5x 10^-3 mol/L in a water solution containing relatively high, three molar concentration of urea ensured the optimal conditions for the reproducible preparation of uniform and small spherical particles. During sulfuration step elemental sulfur was mixed with precursor which eliminated necessity of using an auxiliary furnace and provided sulfur-reach reaction atmosphere. Such optimized protocol afforded synthesis of spherical and non-agglomerated nanoparticles with diameter smaller than 100 nm. The precursors morphology was maintained, but particles size was reduced by 15%-20% during sulfuration. The results indicated that higher emission intensity was observed for Gd202S:Eu3+(8%) oxysulfide sample synthesized using crystalline Gd(CO3)OH precursor, than for that obtained from amorphous Gd2(OH)2(CO3)2.H20 precursor, although some further efforts to improve morphology of the former are still required.展开更多

The as-prepared nanocrystallines were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscope, photoluminescence spectra and X-ray luminescence spectra. It is shown that the assistant fuel ethanol has the effect of decreasing the water needed, simplifying the experiment procedure by dissolving rare earth nitrate and sulfur-contained organic fuel into an even solution, and prompting the formation of rare earth oxysulfide by igniting firstly during heating that leads to combustion decomposition reaction. Y2O2S : Eu nano crystallines with strong photoluminescence and X-ray luminescence are obtained using thioacetamide as organic fuel. Mixtures of Y2O3 : Eu and Y2O2S : Eu are acquired using thiourea as fuel, and the content of Y2O2S : Eu increases until reaches to about half of the Y2O3 : Eu with the increasing amount of thiourea.

The Y 2O 2S∶Ln 3+ (Ln=Sm, Tm) phosphors show bright reddish orange and orange-yellow colors when excited by UV or visible light. The main spectroscopic characterizations of Sm 3+ and Tm 3+ in yttrium oxysulfide and their long-lasting phosphorescence were measured and discussed in this presentation. Their long-lasting phosphorescence can be seen by the naked eyes clearly for about one hour in the dark room after the irradiation light sources were removed. XRD and photoluminescence (PL) spectra as well as the luminance decay were used to characterize these long-lasting phosphorescence phosphors. The results of XRD indicate that the products synthesized through the flux fusion method under 1050 ℃ for 6 h have a good crystallization without any detectable amount of impurity phase. Both the PL spectra and luminance decay results reveal that these phosphors have efficient luminescent and good long-lasting properties. We believe that the experimental data gathered in our present work will be useful in finding some new long-lasting phosphors with different colors.展开更多

Herein, a novel amorphous Nickel Oxysulfide(NiS_xO_y) film is effectively integrated with a Ti protected n^+p-Si micropyramid photocathode by the electrodeposition method. The fabricated n^+p-Si/Ti/Ni SxOyphotocathode exhibits excellent PEC-HER performance with an onset potential of 0.5 V(at J =-0.1 mA/cm^2), a photocurrent density of-26 mA/cm^2 at 0 V vs. RHE, and long term stability of six hours in alkaline solution(pH ≈ 14). The synergy of unique n^+p-Si micropyramid architectures(omnidirectional broadband light harvesting ability), novel amorphous NiS_xO_y catalyst(high HER electrocatalytic activity and good optical transparency) results in the high performance of n^+pSi/Ti/Ni S_xO_y. This work offers a novel strategy for effectively integrating electrocatalysts with semiconductor to design efficient photoelectrode toward PEC water splitting.展开更多

The obtained phosphors were analyzed using X-ray diffraction to determine the crystal structure, and the phase analyses show that the product is in single phase. The luminescence spectra and decay curve were measured on a Hitachi F-4500 fluorescence spectrophotometer. The decay time was determined on an ST-900PM weak light photometer. The analyses show that host doping of Lu improves both luminescence and decay time of the materials. The concentration of doped Lu and Sm was varied in order to determine the optimal condition and to synthesize the product with the best properties. The mechanism of the long afterglow was also briefly discussed.展开更多

Equilibrium phases were analyzed by scanning electron microscope,electron probe X-ray microanalysis(EPMA), and differential thermal analysis(DTA ).Phase diagrams were successfully constructed for the systems investigated.Two ternary compounds in the MnO-SiO_2-MnS system were found.Activities of MnO and MnS in MnO-SiO_2-Al_2O_3-MnS liquid oxysulfide solution from very low sulfur concentration to high sulfur concentration at solid MnS saturation were investigated employing gas/liquid/Pt - Mn alloy under controlled atmosphere at 1 500℃.As X(SiO_2)/(X(MnO) + X(SiO_2)) increases in liquid oxysulfide solution,activity coefficient of MnO decreases while that of MnS increases.As X(AlO_(1.5)) increases,the activity coefficient of MnS increases while no remarkable change was observed for the activity coefficient of MnO.Quantitative analysis of the thermodynamic properties of the oxysulfide solution as well as phase diagram of the system was also earned out by employing the Modified Quasichemical Model in the quadruplet approximation.In view of inclusion utilization for free - cutting steel,it might have an advantage to decrease the Al_2O_3 content and increase the MnO/SiO_2 ratio.展开更多

In this research, an image viewing system consisted of a 30 cm × 30 cm gadolinium oxy-sulfide (GOS) fluorescent screen and a Cannon 500D digital camera were designed and constructed for real-time and near real-time x-ray imaging. The camera was connected to a laptop computer via USB port to allow remote camera setting and control as well as view image on the computer. The system was tested with x-rays generated from a Rigaku x-ray tube for its response at various camera settings and exposure times. The image brightness increased with increasing of the camera ISO setting and with the exposure time as expected. To test the system performance, two test specimens were radiographed including a video camera and a floppy disk drive as well as two simulated specimens. Each of the test specimens was also radiographed at two positions by moving the specimens approximately 6 cm from the first position. The two radiographs of each specimen were then combined to make an anaglyph image that could be viewed in 3D on a normal LCD or LED monitor by using appropriate color glasses. When the two radiographs were combined to make MPO (multiple object) file format, it could be viewed in 3D on a 3D monitor with or without 3D glasses depending on type of the monitor. The developed system could be conveniently employed for routine inspection of a specimen both in 2D and 3D within a minute.展开更多

The crystalstructure and particle morphology were investigated by the X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra, scanning and transmission electron microscopy (SEM and TEM), respectively. A possible growth mechanism was proposed to reveal the formation process. Luminescence properties of the Y202S:Sm3+ long-lasting phosphor were an- alyzed by measuring the excitation spectra, emission spectra, afterglow decay curve and thermoluminescence curve. The excitation spectra indicated that the phosphor could be excited effectively by the ultraviolet-light emitting diode (UV-LED) or blue LED, and the emission spectra showed that the phosphor could emit red light from 600 to 650 nm.展开更多

The results of XRD indicate that the products synthesized through the flux fusion method under 1050 ℃ for 6 h have a good crystallization without any detectable amount of impurity phase. Both the PL spectra and luminance decay results reveal that these phosphors have efficient luminescent and good long-lasting properties. We believe that the experimental data gathered in our present work will be useful in finding some new long-lasting phosphors with different colors.
文摘The phosphor Y2O2S:Eu3+ powder crystal has been synthesized by using the microwave thermal method.The data of X-ray powder diffraction showed that the phosphor structure belongs to hexagonal system with lattice parameters a=0.3785 nm,c=0.6590nm.The excitation spectrum of the phosphor is a broad band with peak at λ(ex)= 261 nm.The main emission peak at λ(em)=626nm and the other emission lines peak at 595,617 and 706 nm are assigned to transitions of the Eu3+ respectively.Under 254 nm excitation,the chromatic coordinates of phosphor are x=0.665, y=0.330.The relative luminescent intensity is about 62% compared with the standard phosphor Y2O3:Eu3+.Under 365nm excitation this phosphor gives rise to an intense red light.The phosphor particle size has a medium diameter of 7.3μm.

文摘Silicon, as a promising semiconductor for fabricating photocathode toward photoelectrochemical hydrogen evolution reaction(PEC-HER), should be improved in light harvesting ability and catalytic kinetics to obtain high PEC performance. Herein, a novel amorphous Nickel Oxysulfide(NiS_xO_y) film is effectively integrated with a Ti protected n^+p-Si micropyramid photocathode by the electrodeposition method. The fabricated n^+p-Si/Ti/Ni SxOyphotocathode exhibits excellent PEC-HER performance with an onset potential of 0.5 V(at J =-0.1 mA/cm^2), a photocurrent density of-26 mA/cm^2 at 0 V vs. RHE, and long term stability of six hours in alkaline solution(pH ≈ 14). The synergy of unique n^+p-Si micropyramid architectures(omnidirectional broadband light harvesting ability), novel amorphous NiS_xO_y catalyst(high HER electrocatalytic activity and good optical transparency) results in the high performance of n^+pSi/Ti/Ni S_xO_y. This work offers a novel strategy for effectively integrating electrocatalysts with semiconductor to design efficient photoelectrode toward PEC water splitting.

文摘Gd- or Lu-doped long afterglow red phosphor Y2O2S:Sm^3+ was synthesized using the high temperature flux fusion method. The obtained phosphors were analyzed using X-ray diffraction to determine the crystal structure, and the phase analyses show that the product is in single phase. The luminescence spectra and decay curve were measured on a Hitachi F-4500 fluorescence spectrophotometer. The decay time was determined on an ST-900PM weak light photometer. The analyses show that host doping of Lu improves both luminescence and decay time of the materials. The concentration of doped Lu and Sm was varied in order to determine the optimal condition and to synthesize the product with the best properties. The mechanism of the long afterglow was also briefly discussed.
文摘MnO-SiO_2-Al_2O_3-MnS oxysulfide system has been investigated by experimental phase diagram and activity measurement coupled with thermodynamic modeling.Phase equilibria of the MnO-MnS,MnO-SiO_2-MnS, MnO-Al_2O_3-MnS and MnO-SiO_2-Al_2O_3-MnS systems under low oxygen partial pressure have been experimentally investigated for the temperature range of 1 185 to 1 500℃using equilibration and quenching techniques. Equilibrium phases were analyzed by scanning electron microscope,electron probe X-ray microanalysis(EPMA), and differential thermal analysis(DTA ).Phase diagrams were successfully constructed for the systems investigated.Two ternary compounds in the MnO-SiO_2-MnS system were found.Activities of MnO and MnS in MnO-SiO_2-Al_2O_3-MnS liquid oxysulfide solution from very low sulfur concentration to high sulfur concentration at solid MnS saturation were investigated employing gas/liquid/Pt - Mn alloy under controlled atmosphere at 1 500℃.As X(SiO_2)/(X(MnO) + X(SiO_2)) increases in liquid oxysulfide solution,activity coefficient of MnO decreases while that of MnS increases.As X(AlO_(1.5)) increases,the activity coefficient of MnS increases while no remarkable change was observed for the activity coefficient of MnO.Quantitative analysis of the thermodynamic properties of the oxysulfide solution as well as phase diagram of the system was also earned out by employing the Modified Quasichemical Model in the quadruplet approximation.In view of inclusion utilization for free - cutting steel,it might have an advantage to decrease the Al_2O_3 content and increase the MnO/SiO_2 ratio.
文摘Conventional x-ray stereoradiography based on film radiography is not practical due to its inconvenient and time-consuming procedures. In this research, an image viewing system consisted of a 30 cm × 30 cm gadolinium oxy-sulfide (GOS) fluorescent screen and a Cannon 500D digital camera were designed and constructed for real-time and near real-time x-ray imaging. The camera was connected to a laptop computer via USB port to allow remote camera setting and control as well as view image on the computer. The system was tested with x-rays generated from a Rigaku x-ray tube for its response at various camera settings and exposure times. The image brightness increased with increasing of the camera ISO setting and with the exposure time as expected. To test the system performance, two test specimens were radiographed including a video camera and a floppy disk drive as well as two simulated specimens. Each of the test specimens was also radiographed at two positions by moving the specimens approximately 6 cm from the first position. The two radiographs of each specimen were then combined to make an anaglyph image that could be viewed in 3D on a normal LCD or LED monitor by using appropriate color glasses. When the two radiographs were combined to make MPO (multiple object) file format, it could be viewed in 3D on a 3D monitor with or without 3D glasses depending on type of the monitor. The developed system could be conveniently employed for routine inspection of a specimen both in 2D and 3D within a minute.

文摘Well dispersed and homogeneous Y2O2S:Sm3+ hollow submicrospheres were successfully achieved by a template- free solvothermal method combining with a postcalcining process. The crystalstructure and particle morphology were investigated by the X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra, scanning and transmission electron microscopy (SEM and TEM), respectively. A possible growth mechanism was proposed to reveal the formation process. Luminescence properties of the Y202S:Sm3+ long-lasting phosphor were an- alyzed by measuring the excitation spectra, emission spectra, afterglow decay curve and thermoluminescence curve. The excitation spectra indicated that the phosphor could be excited effectively by the ultraviolet-light emitting diode (UV-LED) or blue LED, and the emission spectra showed that the phosphor could emit red light from 600 to 650 nm.

文摘Oxychalcogenides have been drawn much attention to be explored as nonlinear optical(NLO)materials in recent years.To date,all the NLO oxychalcogenides crystallize in low dimensional structures.Herein,a new oxysulfide K_(2)Ba_(0.5)Ga_(9)O_(2)S_(13) was obtained via three-dimensional(3D){[Ga_(9)O_(2)S_(13)]^(3-)}_(∞)polyanionic framework.As the first oxychalcogenide with 3D NLO-acitve polyanionic framework,K_(2)Ba_(0.5)Ga_(9)O_(2)S_(13) has a wide band gap of 3.72 eV,and exhibits a high laser-induced damage threshold(LIDT,17×AgGaS_(2)).It presents moderate phase-matchable NLO response of 0.5×AgGaS_(2) at 2.1μm and 2×KH_(2)PO_(4) at 1.064μm.The theoretical calculation results indicate that the NLO response is mainly contributed from[Ga(2)S4]unit-built[Ga(2)_(3)S_(10)]windmill-like motif.This work may stimulate the exploration of more NLO oxychalcogenides with balanced performances.
