The surface modification effect was compared using two different finishhag agents, p-phthalaldehyde and glutaraldehyde. It was found that the surface of up-conversion luminescence materials could be modified by aldehyde groups of the two finishing agents, the systematic dispersibility and the thermostability of the up-conversion luminescence material modified by p-phthalaldehyde were better than those of the material modified by glutaraldehyde, and the luminous intensity of the material modified by p-phthalaldehyde was increased. The AI (the ratio of the suspended segmental quality in the specimen to the total mass of the specimen) of the material modified by p-phthalaldehyde was higher than that of the material modified by glutaraldehyde. It is obviously seen that the embellishment effect of p-phthalaldehyde as a finishing agent was better than that of glutaraldehyde. In addition, the reasons why p-phthalaldehyde is a good finishing agent are also explained.展开更多

This study aims to delve into the electronic structure and optical properties of rare earth luminescent materials, with the goal of uncovering their importance in luminescence mechanisms and applications. Through theoretical calculations and experimental methods, we conducted in-depth analyses on materials composed of various rare earth elements. Regarding electronic structure, we utilized computational techniques such as density functional theory to investigate the band structure, valence state distribution, and electronic density of states of rare earth luminescent materials. The results indicate that the electronic structural differences among different rare earth elements notably influence their luminescence performance, providing crucial clues for explaining the luminescence mechanism. In terms of optical properties, we systematically examined the material’s optical behaviors through fluorescence spectroscopy, absorption spectroscopy, and other experimental approaches. We found that rare earth luminescent materials exhibit distinct absorption and emission characteristics at different wavelengths, closely related to the transition processes of their electronic energy levels. Furthermore, we studied the influence of varying doping concentrations and impurities on the material’s optical properties. Experimental outcomes reveal that appropriate doping can effectively regulate the emission intensity and wavelength, offering greater possibilities for material applications. In summary, this study comprehensively analyzed the electronic structure and optical properties of rare earth luminescent materials, providing deep insights into understanding their luminescence mechanisms and potential value in optoelectronic applications. In the future, these research findings will serve as crucial references for the technological advancement in fields such as LEDs, lasers, and bioimaging.展开更多

The results reveal that Na3MgZr(PO4)3 possesses a direct band gap with a band gap value of 4.917 eV. The obtained Na3MgZr(PO4)3:Dy^3+ phosphors are all well crystallized in trigonal structure with space group Rc, which has strong absorption around 365 nm and can generate warm white light emissions peaking at 487, 576, and 673 nm upon ultraviolet excitation, which are attributed to the transitions from -4F9/2 to ^6H15/2,^6H13/2, and ^6H11/2 of Dy^3+ ions, respectively. The optimal doping content, critical distance, decay time, and Commission International de L'Eclairage(CIE) chromaticity coordinates are investigated in Dy^3+ ion-doped Na3MgZr(PO4)3. The thermal quenching analysis shows that Na3MgZr(PO4)3:Dy^3+ has a good thermal stability, and the thermal activation energy is calculated.

XRD patterns indicated that the broadened diffraction peaks resulted from nanocrystals in Y2O3 : EU^3 + shells of hollow spheres. XPS spectra showed that the Y2O3 : EU^3 + shells were linked with silica cores by a Si-O-Y chemical bond. SEM and TEM observations showed that the size of the SiO2/Y2O3 : EU^3 + core-shell particle was about 100 nm, and the thickness of the Y2O3 : EU^3 + hollow sphere was less than 5 nm. The photoluminescence spectra of the SIO2/Y2O3 : EU^3 + core-shell materials and Y2O3 : EU^3 + hollow spheres had red luminescent properties, and the broadened emission peaks came from nanocrystals composed of the Y2O3 : EU^3 + shell.展开更多

The strontium aluminate luminescent materials with different SrO/Al 2O 3 molar ratio emit the visible lights with different color tone after removal of excitation. The peak wavelengths of the emission spectra drift in the direction of short wave, the quantity of Sr 4Al 14O 25 crystalline phase increases and the afterglow time lengthens with the SrO/Al 2O 3 reduction. The results show that when the SrO/Al 2O 3 molar ratio is near 1, the photoluminescence materials have high luminescent intensity, and when it is near 0.75, they have long afterglow time. However, when SrO/Al 2O 3 molar ratio is more than 1, the luminescent materials appear strong alkaline in water solution; when SrO/Al 2O 3 molar ratio is much less than 0.75, the samples need a higher temperature to be sintered.展开更多

The energy transfer between Gd^3+ and Eu^3+ was discussed with the probability of quantum cutting process. In the excitation spectra monitoring the red emission from Eu^3+ , the distinct lines corresponding to the intraconfigurational 4f-4f transitions from Gd^3+ were observed for both samples, indicating an efficient energy transfer from host Gd^3+ ions to the doped Eu^3+ ions. The efficient energy transfer is necessary for the quantum cutting process based on the two-step energy transfer from Gd^3+ to Eu^3+ . However, the overlapping of the lines corresponding to Gd^3+ :^8S7/2→^6GJ and the broad excitation band (180 - 270 nm) due to Eu^3+- O^2- charge transfer states (CTS) around 200 nm cause excitation energy on ^6GJ levels to dissipate into CTS by direct energy transfer, unfavorable to the cross relaxation energy transfer between Gd^3+ and Eu^3+, thus unfavorable to the quantum cutting process. With the help of the general rules governing the energy positions of Eu^3+-O^2- :CTS, the suggestions concerning searching suitable oxide hosts for Gd^3+-Eu^3+ quantum cutting were made.展开更多

Microwave radiation method was used to synthesize SrAl_2O_4∶Eu, Dy phosphors. Experimental results show that the precursor was composed of crystalline ammonium dawsonite hydrate and strontium carbonate, and the adding of dispersing agent can effectively diminish precursor size. The precursor can be transformed to pure SrAl_2O_4 phase after being calcined for 40 min in microwave chamber. The phosphors possess good persistent luminescent properties, finer grain size ranged from 0.2 μm to 5 μm and better size distribution than that of solid-state reaction. The doping of B^(3+) will result in the increasing of crystallite size, but can effectively improve phosphors′ persistent luminescent properties.展开更多

In this work, OVs were artificially introduced in the surface of a pure TiO2 single crystal by pulsed laser irradiation. Raman spectra showed that the intensity of Eg mode was enhanced. Theoretical calculations disclose that this was caused by the strong coupling effect between the phonon vibration and plasmon induced by the OVs-related surface deformation, and good agreement was achieved between the experiments and theory.展开更多

Particularly, CP electroluminescence(CPEL) originated from CP-OLEDs has wide potential applications in 3D displays, optical information storage, quantum communication, and biological sensors. The diverse design strategies of chiral luminescent materials for CP-OLEDs, including small organic emitters, lanthanide and transition-metal complexes and conjugated polymers, have been extensively explored. Helicene with twisted extended π-conjugated molecular structure could exhibit special helical chirality and excellent circularly polarized luminescence properties, which has been employed as the ingenious chirality core for constructing efficient chiral luminescent materials. In addition, significant improvements have been made in terms of CP photoluminescence research, however, the development of CPEL with more application prospects in optoelectronic technology still lags behind. In this review, we systematically summarize the recent advances in chiral luminescent materials based on helicene structure and their CPEL properties, including helicene-based chiral fluorescence molecules, transition metal complexes and thermally activated delayed fluorescence molecules, and discuss current challenges and future perspectives for this hot research field. We believe this progress report will provide a promising perspective of OLEDs based on helicene emitters with CPEL properties for extensive researchers, including chemical, physical and material scientists in different disciplinary fields and attract them to this rapidly developing field.展开更多

文摘The Y2O3 : EU^3 + hollow spheres were synthesized using the template-mediated method. XRD patterns indicated that the broadened diffraction peaks resulted from nanocrystals in Y2O3 : EU^3 + shells of hollow spheres. XPS spectra showed that the Y2O3 : EU^3 + shells were linked with silica cores by a Si-O-Y chemical bond. SEM and TEM observations showed that the size of the SiO2/Y2O3 : EU^3 + core-shell particle was about 100 nm, and the thickness of the Y2O3 : EU^3 + hollow sphere was less than 5 nm. The photoluminescence spectra of the SIO2/Y2O3 : EU^3 + core-shell materials and Y2O3 : EU^3 + hollow spheres had red luminescent properties, and the broadened emission peaks came from nanocrystals composed of the Y2O3 : EU^3 + shell.
文摘The study on the effects of SrO/Al 2O 3 molar ratio on the crystalline phases and photoluminescence characteristics of strontium aluminate phosphors co-activated with Eu 2+ and Dy 3+ were conducted by X-ray powder diffractometry, fluorescence spectrometer and photometer. The strontium aluminate luminescent materials with different SrO/Al 2O 3 molar ratio emit the visible lights with different color tone after removal of excitation. The peak wavelengths of the emission spectra drift in the direction of short wave, the quantity of Sr 4Al 14O 25 crystalline phase increases and the afterglow time lengthens with the SrO/Al 2O 3 reduction. The results show that when the SrO/Al 2O 3 molar ratio is near 1, the photoluminescence materials have high luminescent intensity, and when it is near 0.75, they have long afterglow time. However, when SrO/Al 2O 3 molar ratio is more than 1, the luminescent materials appear strong alkaline in water solution; when SrO/Al 2O 3 molar ratio is much less than 0.75, the samples need a higher temperature to be sintered.

文摘The long afterglow SrAl_2O_4: Dy, Eu phosphor is liable tohydrolyze in water with deterioration of the lumin- escent property.SrAl_2O_4: Dy, Eu phosphors were therefore heated at 60-90 deg. C inTEOS sol to form a surface gel and then heat-treated at 400 deg. C toobtain SiO_2 coated phosphors. Observation by ?Transmission ElectronMicroscope (TE) and X- ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) showsthat a thin silica film forms on the surface of the phosphors. Thecoating procedure can be illustrated by a four-step process and thetransparent silica film can suppress the hydrolysis process, so thatthe luminescent properties of the phosphors are unimpaired or evenbetter.
文摘The emission and the excitation spectra of GdPO4 : Eu^3+ and GdBO3: Eu^3 + prepared by solid state reaction method were investigated using the synchrotron radiation source of SUPERLUMI station of HASYLAB. The energy transfer between Gd^3+ and Eu^3+ was discussed with the probability of quantum cutting process. In the excitation spectra monitoring the red emission from Eu^3+ , the distinct lines corresponding to the intraconfigurational 4f-4f transitions from Gd^3+ were observed for both samples, indicating an efficient energy transfer from host Gd^3+ ions to the doped Eu^3+ ions. The efficient energy transfer is necessary for the quantum cutting process based on the two-step energy transfer from Gd^3+ to Eu^3+ . However, the overlapping of the lines corresponding to Gd^3+ :^8S7/2→^6GJ and the broad excitation band (180 - 270 nm) due to Eu^3+- O^2- charge transfer states (CTS) around 200 nm cause excitation energy on ^6GJ levels to dissipate into CTS by direct energy transfer, unfavorable to the cross relaxation energy transfer between Gd^3+ and Eu^3+, thus unfavorable to the quantum cutting process. With the help of the general rules governing the energy positions of Eu^3+-O^2- :CTS, the suggestions concerning searching suitable oxide hosts for Gd^3+-Eu^3+ quantum cutting were made.

文摘A rare-earth free upconversion luminescent material, 10BaF2:NaF, Na3AIF6, is synthesized by a hydrothermal method. The study of fluorescent spectrum indicates that it can convert visible light (550 nm-610 nm) into ultraviolet light (290 nm 350 nm), and two emission peaks at 304 nm and 324 nm are observed under the excitation of 583 nm at room temperature. Subsequently, 10BaF2:NaF, Na3AIF6/TiO2 composite photocatalyst is prepared and its catalytic activity is evaluated by the photocatalytic reduction of CO2 under visible light irradiation (λ〉 515 nm). The results show that 10BaF2:NaF, Na3AIF6/TiO2 is a more effective photocatalyst for CO2 reduction than pure TiO2, their corresponding methanol yields are 179 and 0 μmol/g-cat under the same conditions. Additionally, the mechanism of photocatalytic reduction of CO2 on 10BaF2:NaF, Na3AIF6/TiO2 is proposed.
文摘Precursor of SrAl_2O_4∶Eu, Dy phosphor was prepared by co-precipitation method, in which dispersing agent was added to control particle size. Microwave radiation method was used to synthesize SrAl_2O_4∶Eu, Dy phosphors. Experimental results show that the precursor was composed of crystalline ammonium dawsonite hydrate and strontium carbonate, and the adding of dispersing agent can effectively diminish precursor size. The precursor can be transformed to pure SrAl_2O_4 phase after being calcined for 40 min in microwave chamber. The phosphors possess good persistent luminescent properties, finer grain size ranged from 0.2 μm to 5 μm and better size distribution than that of solid-state reaction. The doping of B^(3+) will result in the increasing of crystallite size, but can effectively improve phosphors′ persistent luminescent properties.

文摘Oxygen vacancies (OVs) play a critical role in the physical properties and applications of titanium dioxide nanos- tructures, which are widely used in electrochemistry and photo catalysis nowadays. In this work, OVs were artificially introduced in the surface of a pure TiO2 single crystal by pulsed laser irradiation. Raman spectra showed that the intensity of Eg mode was enhanced. Theoretical calculations disclose that this was caused by the strong coupling effect between the phonon vibration and plasmon induced by the OVs-related surface deformation, and good agreement was achieved between the experiments and theory.

文摘Benefited from direct generation of circularly polarized(CP) emission with tunable colors, high efficiencies and facile device architectures, CP organic light-emitting diodes(CP-OLEDs) have attracted great attention and are expected to meet industrial applications. Particularly, CP electroluminescence(CPEL) originated from CP-OLEDs has wide potential applications in 3D displays, optical information storage, quantum communication, and biological sensors. The diverse design strategies of chiral luminescent materials for CP-OLEDs, including small organic emitters, lanthanide and transition-metal complexes and conjugated polymers, have been extensively explored. Helicene with twisted extended π-conjugated molecular structure could exhibit special helical chirality and excellent circularly polarized luminescence properties, which has been employed as the ingenious chirality core for constructing efficient chiral luminescent materials. In addition, significant improvements have been made in terms of CP photoluminescence research, however, the development of CPEL with more application prospects in optoelectronic technology still lags behind. In this review, we systematically summarize the recent advances in chiral luminescent materials based on helicene structure and their CPEL properties, including helicene-based chiral fluorescence molecules, transition metal complexes and thermally activated delayed fluorescence molecules, and discuss current challenges and future perspectives for this hot research field. We believe this progress report will provide a promising perspective of OLEDs based on helicene emitters with CPEL properties for extensive researchers, including chemical, physical and material scientists in different disciplinary fields and attract them to this rapidly developing field.
