Preparation and Characterization of Red Luminescent Ca_(0.8)Zn_(0.2)TiO_3∶ Pr^(3+), Na^+ Nanophosphor

Nanophosphor with the nominal composition of Ca0.8 Zn0.2 TiO3 ： Pr3 ＋ , Na^＋ （CZTOPN） was synthesized at relatively low temperature by the sol-gel method. Metal ions were dispersed by citric acid in ethylene glycol solvent and then react with Ti（OC4H9）4 to form sol and gel. The decomposition process of the precursor, and crystallization and particle size of CZTOPN were examined by thermal analysis （TG-DSC）, powder X-ray diffraction （XRD）, and scan election microscopy （SEM）. Results of TG-DSC and XRD reveal that the composition of Ca0.8 Zn0.2 TiO3 ： Pr3 ＋ , Na^＋ changes with the sintering temperature. SEM data indicate that the diameter of particles is under 50 nm even if the sintering temperature increases to 1000 ℃. In contrast to a solid state reaction, the excitation spectra of samples synthesized by the sol-gel method shift blue about 10 nm and the emission intensity at 617 nm increases significantly.

Synthesis and characterization of Sr_3Al_2O_6:Eu^(2+), Dy^(3+) phosphors prepared by sol-gel-combustion processing

A type of red luminescent Sr3Al2O6：Eu2＋, Dy3＋ phosphor powder is synthesised by sol-gel-combustion processing, with metal nitrates used as the source of metal ions and citric acid as a chelating agent of metal ions. By tracing the formation process of the sol-gel, it is found that it is necessary to reduce the amount of NO3 by dropping ethanol into the solution for forming a stable and homogeneous sol-gel. Thermogravimetric and Differential Scanning Calorimeter Analysis, x-ray diffractionmeter, scanning electron microscopy and photoluminescence spectroscopy are used to investigate the luminescent properties of the as-synthesised Sr3A1206：Eu2＋, Dy3＋. The results reveal that the Sr3Al2O6 crystallises completely when the combustion ash is sintered at 1250℃. The excitation and the emission spectra indicate that the excitation broadband lies mainly in a visible range and the phosphors emit a strong light at 618 nm under the excitation of 472 nm. The afterglow of （Sr0.94Eu0.03Dy0.03）3Al2O6 phosphors sintered at 1250℃ lasts for over 1000 s when the excited source is cut off.

Luminescence properties of Eu^(3+)-doped new scheelite-type compounds

The efficient new red emitting scheelite-type compounds, Eu3＋-doped （5 tool.%） Y（Zro.5Wo.5）O4, Lu（Zro.sWo,5）O4 and Y（Y1/3W2/3）O4, were successfully prepared. The crystal structure, photoluminescence and decay properties of the obtained phosphors were investigated. Shifts of the peaks in the XRD patterns were observed when y3＋ sites in the host were occupied by Lu3＋ or Zr/W sites were occupied by Y/W, As a result of the crystallographic occupancy of Eu3＋ located at the cation positions without inversion symmetry, under O---Zr/W and O---.Eu3＋ ligand-to-metal charge-transfer states （LMCT） excitation at 300 nm, the emission spectra of these compounds presented 5Do---7F2 transition for EH3＋ at 612 nm. The diagram of EU3＋ energy levels in these new scheelite-type compounds and the energy transfer processes were discussed.

Luminescent properties of Eu^(3+) doped Gd_2WO_6 and Gd_2(WO_4)_3 nanophosphors prepared via co-precipitation method

Eu3＋ doped Gd2WO6 and Gd2（WO4）3 nanophosphors with different concentrations were prepared via a co-precipitation method. The structure and morphology of the nanocrystal samples were characterized by using X-ray diffraction （XRD） and field emission scanning electron microscopy （FE-SEM）, respectively. The emission spectra and excitation spectra of samples were measured. J-O parameters and quantum efficiencies of Eu3＋ 5D0 energy level were calculated, and the concentration quenching of Eu3＋ luminescence in different matrixes were studied. The results indicated that effective Eu3＋：5D0-7F2 red luminescence could be achieved while excited by 395 nm near-UV light and 465 nm blue light in Gd2WO6 host, which was similar to the familiar Gd2（WO4）3：Eu. Therefore, the Gd2WO6：Eu red phosphors might have a potential application for white LED.

D-A structured high efficiency solid luminogens with tunable emissions： Molecular design and photophysical properties

Fabrication of efficient solid luminogens with tunable emission is both fundamentally significant and technically important. Herein, based on our previous strategy for the construction of efficient and multifunctional solid luminogens through the combination of diverse aggregation-induced emission （ALE） units with other functional moieties, a group of luminophores with electron donor-acceptor （D-A） structure and typical intramolecular charge transfer （ICT） characteristics, namely CZ-DCDPP, DPA-DCDPP and DBPA-DCDPP were synthesized and investigated. The presence of twisting and AlE-active 2,3- dicyano-S,6-diphenylpyrazine （DCDPP） moiety endows them highly emissive in the solid states, whereas the introduction of arylamines with varied electron-donating capacity and different conjugation render them with tunable solid emissions from green to red. While CZ-DCDPP and DPA-DCDPP solids exhibit distinct mechanochromism, both DPA-DCDPP and DBPA-DCDPP solids can generate efficient red emission. Owing to their high efficiency, remarkable thermal and morphological stabilities and moreover red emission, they are promising for diverse optoelectronic and biological applications.

利用电荷转移工程提高红色SrLa(Sc,Ga)O_(4):Ce^(3+)荧光粉的热稳定性

可被蓝光激发的高热稳定性红色荧光粉是制作高性能白光二极管(WLED)的关键材料.研究发现,Ce^(3+)掺杂的SrLaScO_(4)(SLO:Ce^(3+))荧光粉在440 nm激发下呈现峰值为640 nm的反常宽带红光发射.光谱学和结构分析证实Ce^(3+)离子在SLO中进入[LaO_(8)]多面体,产生强的晶体场劈裂和较大的Stokes位移,实现了比Eu^(2+)更低能量的红光发射.我们还设计并揭示了一种电荷转移相互作用的策略:在Sc^(3+)位置引入电负性较大的Ga^(3+),Ga^(3+)可以吸引更多邻位配合基团的电荷,以减少导带底部的电子占用而扩大带隙.Sc/Ga取代有效地抑制了热激活电离过程,使SrLa(Sc,Ga)O_(4):Ce^(3+)的热稳定性获得了显著提升,即在150℃的发光强度比(相对于20℃)从15%提升至31%.本研究为发现具有良好热稳定性的新型Ce^(3+)掺杂红色荧光粉提供了有效的设计原则.
