The influence of B ions and annealing temperature on luminescent properties of phosphors were studied by using fluorescence spectrum, X-ray diffraction, DSC, TG/DTG analysis and IR spectrum. The heat treatment has a large effect on the luminescent properties. Under 248 nm excitation, the emission spectrum of samples heated shows characteristic emission peaks of Eu^3+ ions are, which are due to the transitions of ^5D0→^7FJ(J = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4) of Eu^3+ , respectively. The transition of ^5D0→^7F1 is split into two peaks.展开更多

The emission line at about 616 nm attributed to the (()~5D_0)-(()~7F_2) transition of Eu^(3+) is the most intense emission of Eu^(3+). The broad band at about 244 nm is originated from charge transition band (CTB) of O^(2-)→Eu^(3+). According to the numbers of spectral lines (()~5D_0)-(()~7F_0) and (()~5D_0)-(()~7F_1) in high-resolution spectrum, Eu^(3+) ions occupy two crystallographic sites. The lifetimes of (()~5D_0)-(()~7F_0) transition of Eu^(3+) of two kinds of lattice sites are individually 2.1 and 2.6 ms, and both are exponential decay. In the VUV excitation spectrum, complicated band between 130 and 170 nm consists of host absorption and f-d transition of Eu^(3+).展开更多

The addition of exogenous Eu 3+ increases the survival days (SD) and lowered the stomatal sensitivity of grass pea seedlings under the decreasing soil moisture from -0.2 MPa to -1 MPa, suggesting that Eu 3+ can improve the ability of grass pea seedlings to tolerate drought. But in this case, Eu 3+ is found to significantly inhibit the increase in contents of plant toxicity β-N-oxalyl-L-a, β-diaminopropionic acid (ODAP) level in leaves. Therefore, the results demonstrate that Eu 3+ application is a potential agronomic approach to improve drought tolerance while lowering the toxicity level in grass pea productivity.展开更多

The integrated luminescence intensity of the dominant Eu3+ ion transition (5D0→^7F2) at 622 nm increased approximately one order of rnagnitude whereas its spectral position and line width did not change significantly between ambient and 6.8 GPa pressure, respectively. Moreover, material was characterized with photo- and cathodo-luminescence, and photoluminescence excitation spectra at different temperatures. It was found that the Eu3+ ions occupying substitutional Ga site created different centers which could be effectively excited with above band gap excitation and from excitons resonantly photoexcited at the I2 bound exciton energy. Furthermore, the less efficient Eu3+ ions excitation path existed through intrinsic impurities and defeels generating shallow energy levels in the forbidden gap. It was proposed that reduction of the thermal quenching and consequent enhancement of Eu3+ ion emission intensity resulted from stronger localization of bound exciton on RESI trap induced by applied pressure.展开更多

Through controlling the thermal treatment process of YzSi2OT:EU3+/Ag precursor, various phases (amorphous, α, β, γ, δ) were prepared. White light emis- sion was observed under UV light excitation in the samples heavily doped with Ag. The white light was realized by combining the intense red emission of Eu3+, the green emission attributed to the very small molecule-like, non-plasmonic Ag particles (ML-Ag-particles), and the blue emission due to Ag ions. Results demonstrated that Eu3+/Ag co-doped Y2Si207 microcrystal could be potentially applied as white light emission phosphors for UV LED chips.展开更多

The photoluminescence (PL) spectra show that, after annealing, the samples exhibit strong emission at around 622.0 nm under 325 nm laser excitation. The intensity of this emission increases by one order of magnitude after annealing at from 600 ℃ to 900 ℃. Moreover, it increases less than 2 times when the fluence increases from 5×10~14 cm~–2 to 5×10~15 cm~–2 for the sample annealing at 900 ℃. The PL emission peaks around 622 nm of samples annealing at 900 ℃ can be well clarified by Gaussian fitting into 620.2, 622.0 and 625.0 nm, which are due to the Eu^3+ related with defects, Eu^3+ occupied at substitutional positions of Ga, and that located at interstitial sites, respectively. It shows that the different microenvironments and positions of Eu^3+ are responsible for these peaks, and especially the defects introduced by implantation play an important role in the behavior of the PL because they set up an energy transmission bridge from exotic photons to Eu^3+ .展开更多
