Synthesis and Characterization of IR Up-Conversion Material SrS∶Eu, Sm

Europium and samarium co-doped strontium sulfide (SrS∶Eu, Sm) infrared up-conversion phosphor was synthesized through calcining the precursor, which prepared by wet-method with strontium carbonate (SrCO_3), sulphur (S), europium oxide (Eu_2O_3) and samarium oxide (Sm_2O_3) as the starting materials, lithium fluoride (LiF) as the fluxing agent, at 750～1200 ℃ in carbon-reducing atmosphere. XRD analysis shows that SrS crystal structure is formed at 750 ℃, most completely at 1100 ℃. The IR up-conversion luminescence properties were characterized by excitation, emission, up-conversion excitation, up-conversion emission and thermoluminescence spectra. The spectral analysis associated with the physical model of up-conversion luminescence shows that the IR up-conversion luminescence is resulted from electron trapping process of Sm 3+ energy level. The thermoluminescence peak does not appear below 500 ℃ indicating the trapping energy level is appropriately deep, 800～1400 nm near infrared light can be the release light to realize up-conversion luminescence.

Improving luminescent property of SrIn_2 O_4 :Eu^(3+) by co-doped A^+ (A = Li, Na, K) or Sm^(3+)

A series of SrIn2 O4 ：Eu^3＋ phosphors are synthesized by a high temperature solid-state method, and their luminescent properties are investigated. They can be excited by 395-nm radiation, and produce red emission （619 nm）; however, they have a low absorption of near-ultraviolet light with the wavelength of 400nm–405 nm. When co-doped with A^＋ （A=Li, Na, K）, the emission intensity of SrIn2O4 ：Eu^3＋ is significantly enhanced, but its emission and excitation spectral profile is unchanged. With co-doping Sm^3＋ , not only is the emission intensity of SrIn2 O4 ：Eu^3＋ enhanced, but also the absorption is broadened and strengthened in the range of 400 nm–405nm. The effect of Sm^3＋ -doped content on the emission intensity of SrIn2O4 ：Eu^3＋ , Sm^3＋ is investigated, and the optimal Sm^3＋ content is 0.02 mol.

Spectrum analysis results show that the samples which were stimulated by 980 nm laser after excited by ultraviolet lamp emit red luminescence peaking at 649 nm.

Rb-Sr and Sm-Nd Isochron Ages of the Dongmozhazhua and Mohailaheng Pb-Zn Ore Deposits in the Yushu area, southern Qinghai and Their Geological Implications

Located on the northeast margin of the Qiangtang terrane between the Jinshajiang suture zone and Bangonghu-Nujiang suture zone,the Dongmozhazhua and Mohailaheng Pb-Zn deposits in the Yushu area of Qinghai Province are representative Pb-Zn deposits of the Pb-Zn-Cu polymetallic mineralization belt in the northern part of the Nujiang-Lancangjiang-Jinshajiang area,which are in the front belt of the Yushu thrust nappe system.The formed environments of these two deposits are different from those of sediment-hosted base metal deposits elsewhere in the world.The authors hold that they were formed during the Indian-Asian continental collision and developed within the fold-thrust belt combined with thrust and strike-slip-related Cenozoic basins in the interior of the collisional zone.Studying on the metallogenic epochs of these two deposits is helpful to the understanding of ore-forming regularity of the regional Pb-Zn-Cu mineralization belt and also to the search for new deposits in this region.The age of the Dongmozhazhua deposit has been determined by the Rb-Sr isochron method for sphalerite residues,whereas the age of the Mohailaheng deposit has been determined by the Rb-Sr isochron method for sphalerite residues and the Sm-Nd isochron method for fluorite.The age of the Dongmozhazhua deposit is 35.0-±0.0 Ma （（87Sr/86Sr）0=0.708807） for sphalerite residues.The age of the Mohailaheng deposit is 32.2±0.4 Ma （（87Sr/86Sr）o=0.708514） for sphalerite residues and 31.8±0.3 Ma （（143Nd/144Nd）o=0.512362） for fluorite with an average of 32.0 Ma.Together with the regional geological setting during mineralization,a possible tectonic model for metallogeny of the Dongmozhazhua and Mohailaheng Pb-Zn deposits has been established.These two ages are close to the ages of the Pb-Zn deposits in the Lanping and Tuotuohe basins,indicating that it is possible that the narrow 1000-kilometer-long belt controlled by a thrust nappe system on the eastern and northern margins of the Tibetan plateau could be a giant Pb-Zn mineralized belt.

Effect of Sm content on microstructure evolution and mechanical properties of as-cast Mg-6Al-2Sr alloys

Mg-6Al-2Sr alloys with different Sm contents(0%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, mass fraction) were prepared by melting and casting method. The effects of Sm on the microstructure and mechanical properties of as-cast Mg-6Al-2Sr alloys were studied by optical microscope, scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive spectrometer, transmission electron microscope, X-ray diffraction and tensile test. The results show that the microstructure of as-cast Mg-6Al-2Sr alloy is composed of α-Mg, Mg_(17)Al_(12), Mg_(13)Al_(3)Sr and lamellar acicular Al_(4)Sr phase. After adding Sm element, granular block Al2Sm phase appears in the grain. With the increase of Sm content, the discontinuous long strip reticular Mg_(17)Al_(12)phase and the lamellar acicular Al4Sr phase gradually decrease, and the Al_(2)Sm phase increases and distributes more dispersedly, so the alloy microstructure is continuously refined. The average grain size of the alloys decreases at first and then increases with the increase of Sm content. When the Sm content is 1.5 wt%, the average grain size reaches the minimum value of 94.6 μm. With the increase of Sm content, the mechanical properties of the alloy at room temperature first increase and then decrease. When the Sm content is 1.5 wt%, the alloy has the best comprehensive mechanical properties at room temperature.

The rare earth chlorides were more readily transported and concentrated in the middle temperature range of 980～1100 K and the transport efficiency was in the order of Sm≈Gd>Eu. The separation factor, expressed as molar ratio for the resulting chlorides, was 1 70 for Eu∶Sm, 1 88 for Eu∶Gd, 1 24 for Sm∶Gd in the higher temperature region, and 2 76 for Sm∶Eu, 2 83 for Gd∶Eu and 1 12 for Gd∶Sm in the lower temperature region, respectively. All results are much higher than those of the conventional wet process.

Solvent extraction kinetics of Sm(Ⅲ),Eu(Ⅲ) and Gd(Ⅲ) with 2-ethylhexyl phosphoric acid-2-ethylhexyl ester

Solvent extraction kinetics of Sm（Ⅲ）, Eu（Ⅲ） and Gd（Ⅲ） from hydrochloric acid have been focused on using 2-ethylhexyl phosphoric acid-2-ethylhexyl ester （P507） with Anordning for Kontinuerlig Undersokning av Fordelningsfaktore rid Vatske Extraction （AKUFVE）. Compared with the conventional set-up, some advantages emerge obviously, for example, fast phase separation, easy operation and convenience of kinetic data acquisition. First of all, the extraction mechanism was discussed based on the dimeric model of P507. Secondly, the effects of stirring speed were investigated and 420 r-min-1 was determined of the following experiments. The effects of pH, concentration of rare earth elements （REEs） and P507 on the extraction rate were analyzed. The results indicated that the extraction mechanism changed with the increasing concentration of P507. Then, the experiments with different temperature were carried out. It turned out that the values of apparent activation energy （Ea） for Sm（Ⅲ）, Eu（Ⅲ） and Gd（Ⅲ） extracted by P507 were 26.80 kJ-mol-1, 13.40 kJ.mol-1 and 1.10 kJ- mol- 1 respectively, the resistance of the entire process was limited by diffusion or both of diffusion and reaction. Finally, the correlation equations were obtained, and the theoretical results fit with the experimental data well, most relative error was within ± 30%.

Effects of Doping Trace Sm^(3+) and Gd^(3+) on Luminescent Character of Y_2O_2S∶Eu^(3+)

After trace Sm^3＋ ions and Gd^3＋ ions doping, the emission intensity of red phosphors Y2O2S： Eu^3 ＋ was enhanced and the voltage character （relation between emission intensity and excitation voltage） was improved while the other properties of physics and chemistry were not changed. The origins of enhancement and improvement are discussed. Probably the distortion and the defect of crystals are decreased by the substitution of Gd^3＋ for Y^3＋ instead of Eu^3＋ for Y^3＋ , and thus the Eu^3＋ crystal field is improved, and radiationless process and energy loss resulted from crystal defect are weakened, which leads to increased luminescence intensity and voltage character improvement. The overlapping fluorescent spectra of Y2O2S： Sm^3＋ emission and Y2O2S：Eu^3＋ excitation as well as Eu^3 ＋ excitation spectra transitions spectra lead to energy transfer from Sm^3 ＋ sensitization of Sm^3＋ ions fectively. containing Sm^3＋ excitation the possibility of resonance ions to Eu^3＋ ions, and the to Eu^3＋ ions is achieved effectively.
