Pr^3＋掺杂的LaF3纳米微晶／氟氧化物玻璃陶瓷的4f5d能级光谱性质

用同步辐射的真空紫外(VUV)和紫外(UV)作为激发源研究了Pr^3 (0．1％)掺杂的LaF3纳米微晶，氟氧化物玻璃陶瓷的4f5d能级光谱性质。样品中存在两种不同的Pr^3 -LaF3微晶中的Pr^3 最低的4f5d能级在^1S0能级之上，玻璃中的却在^S0能级之下，通过VUV和UV激发光谱得出这两种Pr^3 最低的4f5d能级的位置。当用181nm光激发样品时，在发射光谱中同时观察到了微晶中Pr^3 4f^2→4f^2的窄谱带发射和玻璃中4f5d→4f^2的宽谱带发射。在20K时观察到了LaF3纳米微晶中作为Pr^3 光子级联发射(PCE)第二步的^3P0→H4的跃迁，室温下却没有观察到，文中详细讨论了产生这种现象的原因。     

高密度发光材料BiTaO4：Pr^3＋和BiTaO4的发光特性研究

研究了BiTaO4:Pr^3 ,BiTaO4的光致发光性质，测量了BiTaO4的红外透射和漫反射光谱。BiTaO4的光致发光光谱发射峰位于约420，440，465nm；其激发谱在约330－370nm范围有明显的激发。BiTaO4:Pr^3 的光致发光光谱为Pr^3 的特征发射，主峰为606nm，来自Pr^3 的^3P0→^3H6跃迁；其激发谱由来自于基质的峰值为325nm和范围在375－430nm的宽激发带以及Pr^3 的特征激发组成，325nm,375-430nm的激发带可能分别来自钽酸根团的电荷迁移跃迁和基质的带间缺陷能级的吸收；在BiTaO4:Pr^3 中存在着基质→Pr^3 的能量传递。由于BiTaO4:Pr^3 基质的密度和Pr^3 的发光强度均超过PbWO4，因此BiTaO4:Pr^3 可能是潜在的重闪烁体。     

Eu3+和Tb3+在LnBaB9O16中的紫外和真空紫外发光性质

研究了Tb3+和Eu3+在LnBaB9O16(Ln=La,Gd,Y,Lu)中的紫外和真空紫外光谱性质.X射线粉末衍射数据指标化结果表明,LnBaB9O16(Ln=La,Gd,Y,Lu)系列化合物属于三方晶系.Eu3+的荧光光谱结果表明,LaBaB9O16和GdBaB9O16中稀土离子占据非中心对称的格位,Eu3+在其中的特征发射以5D0→7F2电偶极跃迁为主;而在YBaB9O16和LuBaB9~O16中稀土离子占据中心对称性的格位,Eu3+在其中的特征发射以5D0→7F1磁偶极跃迁为主.Tb3+在LaBaB9O16和GdBaB9O16中的发射为5D3→7F0和5D4→7F1(J=0～6)辐射跃迁,在YBaB9O16和LuBaB9O16中只能观察到5D4→7F1(J=3～6)辐射跃迁.与Eu3+的发光性质相反,Tb3+占据非中心对称的格位时的发射强度比占据中心对称的格位时要弱得多.Eu3+和Tb3+掺杂的样品在真空紫外波段的吸收弱.     

GdAlO_3∶Tb,RE中Tb,RE的能量传递研究

采用柠檬酸盐硝酸盐燃烧法制备了GdAlO3∶Tb,RE荧光粉体.在紫外激发下(254nm),GdAlO3∶Tb发射绿色荧光(5D4→7F5,544nm),Dy共掺杂对绿色发光有增强作用,Ce共掺杂对GdAlO3∶Tb绿色发光有降低作用.激发谱和能谱研究表明:Dy能级嵌入Tb主发射能级5D4(绿色发光能级)、5D3(蓝色发光能级)能级之间,Ce能级嵌入Tb主发射能级5D4、5D3能级上方.这种能级嵌入方式,使得稀土离子之间存在声子支持的共振能量传递,但Tb→Dy→Tb能量传递使Tb绿色发射(5D4→7FJ(J=3,4,5,6))增强,蓝色发射(5D3→7FJ(J=3,4,5,6))减弱;而Ce→Tb能量传递使Tb蓝色发射增强,绿色发射减弱.

BiTaO4∶Pr3+的光致发光光谱为Pr3+的特征发射, 主峰为606 nm, 来自Pr3+的3P0→3H6跃迁; 其激发谱由来自于基质的峰值为325 nm和范围在375～430 nm的宽激发带以及Pr3+的特征激发组成, 325 nm, 375～430 nm的激发带可能分别来自钽酸根团的电荷迁移跃迁和基质的带间缺陷能级的吸收; 在BiTaO4∶Pr3+中存在着基质→Pr3+的能量传递. 由于BiTaO4∶Pr3+基质的密度和Pr3+的发光强度均超过PbWO4, 因此BiTaO4∶Pr3+可能是潜在的重闪烁体.     

Photon cascade emission of Pr~(3+) in LnBaB_9O_(16) (Ln = La, Y)

Under 216 nm UV-excitation, cascade emission of Pr3+ occurs from 1S0 state in LaBaB9O16:Pr3+ that converts a single UV photon of high energy into two visible photons. The observation of the cascade emission in this oxide matrix is largely due to the weak crystal field on the lanthanum sites. The analysis of the vibrational coupling indicates that the radiative transition from the 3P0 state is related to the low phonon frequency of the BO4 borate groups bonded to the lanthanum atoms (hwmax-850cm-1). On the other hand, the cascade emission does not take place in a closely related material, YBaB9O16:Pr3+, which can be interpreted by the fact that the 4f5d levels are located below the 1S0 level in this material.

A spectroscopic analysis of blue and ultraviolet upconverted emissions from Gd3Ga5O12:Tm3+, Yb3+ nanocrystals

The spectroscopic behavior of gadolinium gallium garnet (Gd3Ga5O12, GGG) nanocrystals codoped with 1% each of Tm3+ and Yb3+ prepared via a solution combustion synthesis procedure was investigated. Initial excitation of the codoped nanocrystals with 465.8 nm (into the 1G4 state) showed a dominant blue-green emission ascribed to the 1G4-3H6 transition as well as red and NIR emissions from the 1G4-3F4 and 1G4-3H5/3H4-3H6 transitions, respectively. Excitation at this wavelength (465.8 nm) showed the existence of a Tm3+ --> Yb3+ energy transfer process evidenced by the presence of the 2F5/2-2F7/2 Yb3+ emission in the NIR emission spectrum. The decay time constants proved that the transfer of energy occurred via the 3H4 state. Following excitation of the Yb3+ ion with 980 nm, intense upconverted emission was observed. Emissions in the UV (1D2-3H6), blue (1D2-3F4), blue-green (1G4-3H6), red (1G4-3F4), and NIR (1G4-3H5/3H4-3H6) were observed and were the direct result of subsequent transfers of energy from the Yb3+ ion to the Tm3+ ion. Power dependence studies showed a deviation from expected values for the number of photons involved in the upconversion thus indicating a saturation of the upconversion process. An energy transfer efficiency of 0.576 was determined experimentally.     

Ligand-passivated Eu:Y2O3 nanocrystals as a phosphor for white light emitting diodes

Eu(III)-doped Y(2)O(3) nanocrystals are prepared by microwave synthetic methods as spherical 6.4 ± 1.5 nm nanocrystals with a cubic crystal structure. The surface of the nanocrystal is passivated by acetylacetonate (acac) and HDA on the Y exposed facet of the nanocrystal. The presence of acac on the nanocrystal surface gives rise to a strong S(0) → S(1) (π → π*, acac) and acac → Ln(3+) ligand to metal charge transfer (LMCT) transitions at 270 and 370 nm, respectively, in the Eu:Y(2)O(3) nanocrystal. Excitation into the S(0) → S(1) (π → π*) or acac → Ln(3+) LMCT transition leads to the production of white light emission arising from efficient intramolecular energy transfer to the Y(2)O(3) oxygen vacancies and the Eu(III) Judd-Ofelt f-f transitions. The acac passivant is thermally stable below 400 °C, and its presence is evidenced by UV-vis absorption, FT-IR, and NMR measurements. The presence of the low-lying acac levels allows UV LED pumping of the solid phosphor, leading to high quantum efficiency (～19%) when pumped at 370 nm, high-quality white light color rendering (CIE coordinates 0.33 and 0.35), a high scotopic-to-photopic ratio (S/P = 2.21), and thermal stability. In a LED lighting package luminosities of 100 lm W(-1) were obtained, which are competitive with current commercial lighting technology. The use of the passivant to funnel energy to the lanthanide emitter via a molecular antenna effect represents a new paradigm for designing phosphors for LED-pumped white light.

Progress of estuarine research in China over last 50 years

Under 216 nm UV-excitation, cascade emission of Pr³⁺ occurs from¹S₀ state in LaBaB₉O₁₆:Pr³⁺ that converts a single UV photon of high energy into two visible photons. The observation of the cascade emission in this oxide matrix is largely due to the weak crystal field on the lanthanum sites. The analysis of the vibrational coupling indicates that the radiative transition from the³ P ₀ state is related to the low phonon frequency of the BO₄ borate groups bonded to the lanthanum atoms(hω _max∼850 cm^-1). On the other hand, the cascade emission does not take place in a closely related material, YBaB₉O₁₆:Pr³⁺, which can be interpreted by the fact that the 4f5d levels are located below the¹S₀ level in this material.
