GdAlO_3:Er~(3+),Yb~(3+)荧光粉的制备与上转换发光性能

采用共沉淀、溶胶-凝胶和固相反应法制备了GdAlO3:Er3+,Yb3+荧光粉.借助X射线衍射、扫描电子显微镜、傅里叶变换红外光谱、N2-吸附、吸收光谱和荧光光谱等手段研究了不同方法制备的GdAlO3:Er3+,Yb3+荧光粉结构、形貌、表面基团和光吸收及上转换发光性能.结果表明:用共沉淀法比固相反应法和溶胶-凝胶法可以在更温和的条件下制得纯相GdAlO3:Er3+,Yb3+荧光粉,用共沉淀法和溶胶-凝胶法制备的GdAlO3:Er3+,Yb3+荧光粉颗粒都在纳米尺寸,溶胶-凝胶法制得的样品存在相对严重的颗粒团聚现象,而用固相反应法制备的荧光粉为微米级颗粒.GdAlO3:Er3+,Yb3+荧光粉在980 nm激发的上转换发射光谱包含波长为524和546 nm的绿光与659 nm的红光,且三种方法制备的样品绿光发射强度都显著高于红光.不同方法制备的荧光粉上转换发光强度和红光/绿光强度比相差较大,共沉淀法制备的样品上转换发光强度要显著高于固相法以及溶胶-凝胶法制备的样品,而溶胶-凝胶法制备的样品发光中红光/绿光相对强度比最高.红外光谱显示,不同方法制备的GdAlO3:Er3+,Yb3+荧光粉表面OH-、CO32-及CO2官能团含量不同,溶胶-凝胶法制备的样品要明显高些.基于红外光谱、不同Er3+和Yb3+离子掺杂浓度及不同激光功率上转换发光的结果,对Er3+和Yb3+之间的能量传递过程及不同方法制备荧光粉的上转换发光性能进行了讨论.     

相位可控的氟钪纳米晶的合成及其上转换发光性能

控制反应条件如表面活性剂的组成、加入量或反应时间,可以制得不同形态、相结构且具有上转换发光(UCL)的氟钪纳米晶(NCs)。改变表面活性剂油酸(OA)/油胺(OM)的比例有利于晶体结构从立方相ScF_3∶Yb,Er转变为具有上转换发光性能增强的正交相KSc_2F_7∶Yb,Er纳米晶,而纳米晶的形态会发生从小到大的转变。改变掺杂元素的种类及含量,在980 nm光激发下,KSc_2F_7纳米晶的上转换发光可以从蓝色变到白色,再到主要发射紫色光。     

过渡金属掺杂NaGdF_4:Yb~(3+),Ho~(3+)纳米晶的制备和上转换发光性能

采用水热法合成掺杂过渡金属离子Mn2+和Cr3+的Na Gd F4:Yb3+,Ho3+纳米晶,研究了纳米晶的结构和上转换发光性能。XRD研究结果表明:所有的样品均为六方结构Na Gd F4。合成的纳米晶在980 nm红外光激发下,呈现绿光(520~562 nm),红光(620~675 nm)和红外光(730~760 nm)发射。与未掺杂过渡金属离子的样品相比,掺杂Mn2+离子的Na Gd F4:Yb3+,Ho3+纳米晶上转换发光总效率提高,红光/绿光相对强度增加,红外光/绿光相对强度减弱,掺杂Cr3+离子的Na Gd F4:Yb3+,Ho3+纳米晶发光总效率稍有减弱,红光/绿光和红外光/绿光相对强度增加。主要源于Ho3+→Mn2+→Ho3+和Ho3+→Cr3+→Ho3+的两步能量传递。计算色坐标可得,掺杂Cr3+/Mn2+离子后的Na Gd F4:Yb3+,Ho3+纳米晶的发光由绿光区移向黄光区,微调了纳米晶体的发光颜色。

采用溶胶-凝胶法制备了 Er3+单掺杂A2 Ti2O7(A=La,Y,Gd)和Er3+,Yb3+共掺杂的La2 Ti2O7纳米晶样品.用X射线衍射仪、扫描电子显微镜和紫外-可见-近红外光谱仪分别对样品的结构、形貌和光吸收性质进行了表征;测试了样品在980 nm激光激发下的室温上转换光谱.结果发现,样品都发出了很强的绿光(大约在525和549 nm)和红光(大约660 nm).通过研究这些基质的晶体结构对上转换发光的影响,发现La2 Ti2O7基质中Er3+离子的上转换发射最强.对La2 Ti2O7纳米晶的上转换发光研究表明,Yb3离子能够有效地敏化Er3离子的上转换发射.对上转换发光强度与泵浦功率的依赖分析,发现红光和绿光的发射均属于双光子吸收过程,最后讨论了Er3+和Yb3的上转换发光机制.     

Er3+/Yb3+共掺纳米In2O3的制备及上转换发光

用低温溶剂热法以乙二醇为溶剂合成了Er3+和Yb3+共掺的In2O3纳米晶。用X射线衍射(XRD)、透射电镜(TEM)、漫反射光谱和上转换发光光谱对样品进行了分析。XRD和TEM结果表明,产物为纯的立方相In2O3结构,粒径约为30 nm;漫反射光谱显示了In2O3∶Er3+,Yb3+纳米晶在522、653和975 nm附近有3个吸收带;在980 nm近红外光激发下,样品发射出中心波长为525及555 nm的绿光和662 nm的红光,分别对应于Er3+的2H11/2→4I15/2、4S3/2→4I15/2和4F9/2→4I15/2跃迁;研究了Er3+和Yb3+离子的不同掺杂浓度对发光强度的影响,确定了Yb3+和Er3+离子的最佳掺杂浓度均为3%;双对数曲线显示绿光和红光的发射过程均为双光子吸收过程,对样品的上转换发光机制进行了初步讨论。     

Yb~(3+)/Er~(3+)掺杂比例对BaTiO_3:Yb~(3+),Er~(3+)纳米晶上转换发光分支比的影响

采用改进的溶胶凝胶前驱单体法合成了一系列Er3+单掺和Er3+-Yb3+共掺的BaTiO3:Ln3+上转换发光纳米颗粒,产物经900℃煅烧后得到结晶性极佳的纯立方相BaTiO3纳米晶,尺寸均匀约为100nm。稀土离子浓度较低时不会影响产物的晶体结构和形貌,掺杂浓度达到5%时出现微弱的Ba2TiO4衍射峰,当掺杂浓度达到20%时Ba2TiO4已经占主要部分,此时产物中有大量微米量级的颗粒存在。上转换发光显示:Er3+单掺浓度为0.5%时能获得最强的绿光发射,此时红绿光强度比约为1∶15。当Er3+-Yb3+共掺时,Yb3+极大地抑制了绿光的发射,同时红光发射明显增强,当Yb3+/Er3+大于5∶1后,红绿光强度比稳定在3∶1。上转换机制分析表明,Yb3+浓度较高时会引起Er3+-Yb3+粒子之间的能量逆传递过程,导致红光发射增强,而绿光发射减弱。

Study on Gd3+ and Sm3+ co-doped ceria-based electrolytes

Doped ceria electrolytes of Ce_1-aGd_a-ySm_yO_2–0.5a, wherein a=0.15 or 0.2, and 0ya, were prepared with the citrate method, and characterized by inductively coupled plasma–atomic emission spectrometry, energy dispersive spectrometry, scanning electron microscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, and AC impedance spectroscopy. The effect of composition on the structure and conductivity was studied. All the samples were fluorite-type ceria-based solid solutions. For the singly doped samples, the optimal composition was Ce_0.85Gd_0.15O_1.925 for Gd³⁺-doped ceria (CGO), which showed higher ionic conductivity than the best Sm³⁺-doped ceria (CSO) at 773–973 K. For the co-doped samples, the ionic conductivities were higher than those of the singly doped ones in the temperature range 673–973 K when a=0.15, but only better in 673–773 K when a=0.2. For the samples of Ce_0.85Gd_0.15-ySm_yO_1.925, wherein 0.05y0.1, much higher ionic conductivity was observed than those of the singly doped ceria at 773K~973 K. Therefore, these co-doped samples would be better than CGO and CSO to be the electrolytes of intermediate-temperature solid oxide fuel cells.

Research on Molecular Structure and Electronic Properties of Ln3+ (Ce3+, Tb3+, Pr3+)/Li+ and Eu2+ Co-Doped Sr2Si5N8 via DFT Calculation

We use density functional theory (DFT) to study the molecular structure and electronic band structure of Sr₂Si₅N₈:Eu²⁺ doped with trivalent lanthanides (Ln³⁺ = Ce³⁺, Tb³⁺, Pr³⁺). Li⁺ was used as a charge compensator for the charge imbalance caused by the partial replacement of Sr²⁺ by Ln³⁺. The doping of Ln lanthanide atom causes the structure of Sr₂Si₅N₈ lattice to shrink due to the smaller atomic radius of Ln³⁺ and Li⁺ compared to Sr²⁺. The doped structure’s formation energy indicates that the formation energy of Li⁺, which is used to compensate for the charge imbalance, is the lowest when the Sr2 site is doped. Thus, a suitable Li⁺ doping site for double-doped lanthanide ions can be provided. In Sr₂Si₅N₈:Eu²⁺, the doped Ce³⁺ can occupy partly the site of Sr₁²⁺ ([SrN₈]), while Eu²⁺ accounts for Sr₁²⁺ and Sr₂²⁺ ([SrN₁₀]). When the Pr³⁺ ion is selected as the dopant in Sr₂Si₅N₈:Eu²⁺, Pr³⁺ and Eu²⁺ would replace Sr₂²⁺ simultaneously. In this theoretical model, the replacement of Sr²⁺ by Tb³⁺ cannot exist reasonably. For the electronic structure, the energy level of Sr₂Si₅N₈:Eu²⁺/Li⁺ doped with Ce³⁺ and Pr³⁺ appears at the bottom of the conduction band or in the forbidden band, which reduces the energy bandgap of Sr₂Si₅N₈. We use DFT+U to adjust the lanthanide ion 4f energy level. The adjusted 4f-CBM of Ce_Sr1Li_Sr1-Sr₂Si₅N₈ is from 2.42 to 2.85 eV. The energy range of 4f-CBM in Pr_Sr1Li_Sr1-Sr₂Si₅N₈ is 2.75–2.99 eV and its peak is 2.90 eV; the addition of Ce³⁺ in Eu_Sr1Ce_Sr1Li_Sr1 made the 4f energy level of Eu²⁺ blue shift. The addition of Pr³⁺ in Eu_Sr2Pr_Sr2Li_Sr1 makes part of the Eu²⁺ 4f energy level blue shift. Eu²⁺ 4f energy level in Eu_Sr2Ce_Sr1Li_Sr1 is not in the forbidden band, so Eu²⁺ is not used as the emission center.

采用水热法,以聚乙二醇(400)为分散剂,以NaOH和HNO3溶液调节初始溶液pH值,合成GdF3∶Eu3+和NaGdF4∶Eu3+纳米晶。XRD和SEM结果表明:在酸性溶液(pH=3,5)、中性溶液(pH=7)和碱性溶液(pH=9)中,分别获得具有正交结构的GdF3∶Eu3+纳米晶,GdF3∶Eu3+和NaGdF4∶Eu3+混合晶,六方结构NaGdF4∶Eu3+棒状微米晶。根据Scherrer公式估算pH=3和pH=5时制备纳米晶的一次性粒径分别为49和28 nm。样品的发射光谱结果表明:特征发射峰来自于5D2、5D1、5D0到7FJ跃迁。在主晶相为GdF3样品中,主发射峰来自于Eu3+的5D0→7F1的磁偶极跃迁;晶相为NaGdF4样品的主发射峰来自于Eu3+的5D0→7F2电偶极跃迁。5D0→7F1和5D0→7F2跃迁发射相对强度比值显示:Eu3+在NaGdF4晶体中的格位对称性下降。激发光谱显示出Gd3+和Eu3+具有较好的能量传递。     

Isomerism in OBe3F3 + cation: anab initio study

Ab initio MP2/6-31G^*//HF/6-31G^*+ZPE(HF/6-31G^*) calculations of the potential energy surface in the vicinity of stationary points and the pathways of intramolecular rearrangements between low-lying structures of the OBe₃F₃ ⁺ cation detected in the mass spectra of μ₄-Be₄O(CF₃COO)₆ were carried out. Ten stable isomers with di- and tricoordinate oxygen atoms were localized. The relative energies of six structures lie in the range 0–8 kcal mol⁻¹ and those of the remaining four structures lie in the range 20–40 kcal mol⁻¹. Two most favorable isomers, aC _2v isomer with a dicoordinate oxygen atom, planar six-membered cycle, and one terminal fluorine atom and a pyramidalC _3v isomer with a tricoordinate oxygen atom and three bridging fluorine atoms, are almost degenerate in energy. The barriers to rearrangements with the breaking of one fluorine bridge are no higher than 4 kcal mol⁻¹, except for the pyramidalC _3v isomer (∼16 kcal mol⁻¹). On the contrary, rearrangements with the breaking of the O−Be bond occur with overcoming of a high energy barrier (∼24 kcal mol⁻¹). A planarD _3h isomer with a tricoordinate oxygen atom and linear O−Be−H fragments was found to be the most favorable for the OBe₃H₃ ⁺ cation, a hydride analog of the OBe₃F₃ ⁺ ion; the energies of the remaining five isomers are more than 25 kcal mol⁻¹ higher.

Transmission electron microscopy study of Ruddlesden-Popper Can+1MnnO3n+1n=2 and 3 compounds

Two Ruddlesden-Popper compounds Ca_n+1Mn_nO_3n+1 with n=2 and 3 synthesized by a citrate gel technique have been studied by TEM. The structure of Ca₄Mn₃O₁₀ is consistent with the previously determined structure having the space group Pbca and a⁻ a⁻ c⁺/a⁻ a⁻ c⁺ tilt system. The presence of defects suggests the possible high-temperature phase transition from untilted I4/mmm to Pbca. The structure of Ca₃Mn₂O₇ was found to be different from the previously suggested I4/mmm symmetry. Ca₃Mn₂O₇ forms with an orthorhombic structure with either Cmcm or Cmc2₁ space group. A structural model for Cmc2₁ based on the tilting of almost-rigid octahedra with a⁺ c⁻ c⁻/a⁺ c⁻ c⁻ tilt system is proposed. The lamellar defects were shown to be twin variants of the Cmc2₁ structure with the (001)_t interfaces, which suggests the possible tilting phase transition from the ideal I4/mmm to Cmc2₁ following the maximal group-subgroup symmetry tree: I4/mmm→Fmmm→Bbmm(Cmcm)→Bb2₁m(Cmc2₁).
