Their photoluminescence, phosphorescence and thermoluminescence are investigated. The results indicate that codoping Nb5+ can improve the photoluminescence and phosphorescence property of CaTiO3:Pr3+ significantly. When 3-mol% Nb5+ is codoped, the emission intensity of CaTiO3:Pr3+ is enhanced twice, while the afterglow time is extended from 10 min to about 40 min. Thermoluminescence results reveal that the trapping level of CaTiO3:Pr3+ is reduced from 0.82~eV to 0.62~eV by codoping Nb5+. The effect of Nb5+ doping on enhancing the photoluminescence intensity and afterglow time of CaTiO3:Pr3+ is discussed.展开更多
In order to improve the luminescence properties of CaTiO3:Pr3+, a series of CaTiO3:Pr3+, such as CaTi0.97Nb0.03O3:Pr3+, Ca0.8Zn0.2TiO3: Pr3+, Ca0.8Zn0.2Ti0.97Nb0.03O3:Pr3+ and B3+-doped Ca0.8Zn0.2Ti0.97Nb0....In order to improve the luminescence properties of CaTiO3:Pr3+, a series of CaTiO3:Pr3+, such as CaTi0.97Nb0.03O3:Pr3+, Ca0.8Zn0.2TiO3: Pr3+, Ca0.8Zn0.2Ti0.97Nb0.03O3:Pr3+ and B3+-doped Ca0.8Zn0.2Ti0.97Nb0.03O3: Pr3+ were prepared through conventional solid state reaction method. The results of the photoluminescence excitation and emission spectra showed that all the samples emitted red phosphorescence at 612 nm originating from 1D2 to 3H4 emission of Pr3+ under the 337 nm excitation. When examined by the X-ray diffraction (XRD), all the samples presented a predominant phase of CaTiO3 (JCPDS# 42-423) except Zn2+-doped samples which also revealed another phase of Zn2Ti3O8 (JCPDS# 73-579). The results of the afterglow decay curves showed that co-doping Zn2+ ions, Nb5+ ions or adding a small amount of B3+ into Ca0.8Zn0.2Ti0.97Nb0.03O3:Pr3+ were effective in improving the photoluminescence properties of CaTiO3:Pr3+ phosphor. Thermoluminescence results showed that the trap existing in all the samples was the same as in CaTiO3:Pr3+ and doping singly Nb5+ or Zn2+ hardly changed the trap depth but co-doping Nb5+ and Zn2+ could modify the trapping level from 0.63 to 1.26 eV distinctively. In addition, adding a certain amount of B3+ into CTO-PZN could also deepen the trap depth.展开更多

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.展开更多
