Under 980 nm excitation, ultraviolet (^4G11/2→^4I15/2), violet (^2H9/2→^4I15/2), green (^4F7/2→^4I15/2, 2H11/2→^4I15/2, and ^4S3/2→^4I15/2), and red (^4F9/2→^4I15/2) upconversion fluorescence were observed. The number of laser photons absorbed in one upconversion excitation process, n, was determined to be 3.89, 1.61, 2.55, and 1.09 for the ultraviolet, violet, green, and red emissions, respectively. Obviously, n=3.89 indicated that a four-photon process was involved in populating the ^4G11/2 state, and n=2.55 indicated that a three-photon process was involved in populating the ^4F7/2/^2H11/2/^4S3/2 levels. For the violet and red emissions, the population of the states ^2H9/2 and ^4F9/2 separately came from three-photon and two-photon processes. The decrease of n was well explained by the mechanism of competition between linear decay and upconversion processes for the depletion of the intermediate excited states.展开更多

The photoelectric conversion efficiency of TiO2-NaYF4:Er^3+/Yb^3+ C3N4 composite cell can result an efficiency of 7.37%, which is higher than those of pure TiO2 cell and TiO2-C3N4 composite cell. The enhancement of the efficiency can be attributed to the synergetic effect of NaYF4:Er^3+/Yb^3+ and C3N4. Elec- trochemical impedance spectroscopy analysis revealed that the interfacial resistance of the TiO2-dyelI3^-/I^- electrolyte interface of TiO2-NaYF4:Er^3+/Yb^3+-C3N4 composites cell was much smaller than that of pure TiO2 cell. In addition, the TiO2-NaYF4:Er^3+/Yb^3+-C3N4 composite cell had longer electron recombination time and shorter electron transport time than that of pure TiO2 cell.展开更多
