A new rare-earth polyborate, trisodium europium octaborate, Na3EuB8O15, was prepared using the high-temperature molten-salt method and structurally determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. It crystallizes in the triclinic space group P\overline{1} and contains a one-dimensional [B8O15]∞ tube structure that is constructed from BO3 and BO4 polyhedra. The Eu3+ and Na+ cations reside in this structure to ensure cohesion and neutrality. The excitation spectra, emission spectra, decay time and Commission Internationale de l'Éclairage (CIE) chromaticity index of Na3EuB8O15 were studied. Under near-UV light excitation (393 nm), the polyborate shows an intense red emission, which mainly originates from the highest intensities of the 5D0→7F1 and 5D0→7F2 transitions.

Single-phase Ba5(PO4)3Cl:Ce3+,Tb3+ (BPCl:Ce3+,Tb3+) samples have been synthesized via solid-state reaction method. The phase structure and luminescence properties are characterized using powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), photoluminescence excitation and emission spectra. Effective energy transfer occurs from Ce3+ to Tb3+ due to the observed spectral overlap between the emission band of Ce3+ and the excitation band of Tb3+. Ce3+/Tb3+-codoped Ba5(PO4)3Cl shows more intense yellowish-green light compared to that of Tb3+-doped sample under UV light excitation.

La3PO7:Eu3+ samples were prepared by combustion and annealing and characterized by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. It was found that the average size of the particles is about 80 nm. The red emission from the 5D0 → 7F2 transition of the Eu3+ ions under ultraviolet light excitation is much stronger than the orange emission from the 5D0 → 7F1 transition. The emission spectra, charge transfer band, laser selective excitation spectra, and time-resolved spectra indicate that symmetry of the local environment of Eu3+ lacks an inversion center and Eu3+ ions occupy at least two types of sites in the La3PO7 crystal. The superior color chromaticity compared to other phosphates and borates doped with Eu3+ means La3PO7:Eu3+ may have potential as a luminescent material.

In this work, a series of red emitting Lu3Te2Li3O12: Eu3+ phosphors were synthesized for the first time by high temperature solid state reaction. The structure was characterized by X-ray diffraction. The excitation spectra, emission spectra and CIE chromaticity coordinate were studied. The phosphors show strong red emission at 611 nm due to the 5D0-7F2 transition of Eu3+ ions. The optimal doping concentration of Eu3+ in LTL host is x = 0.5 due to the concentration quenching mechanism of dipole-dipole interaction. The CIE chromaticity coordinates of the LTL: 0.5Eu3++ phosphor is (0.644,0.355), and the purity of the color is up to 93.61%. The phosphor can be considered as a potential red-emitting candidate for near UV WLEDs.

The luminescence properties of green-yellow emitting (Sr1-xBax)1.95SiO4:0.05Eu2+ (0≤x≤1) phosphors were discussed in this paper. These phosphors were synthesized through the high temperature solid-state reaction technique and characterized by X-ray diffraction. The experimental results indicated that all the major phase of prepared phosphors gradually varied from α-Sr2SiO4 (x=0) phase to Ba2SiO4 (x=1) phase, and an intermediate phase between the two phases was observed at x=0.5. The excitation spectra (λem λem=524 nm) and emission spectra (λex λex=400 nm) showed a broad band character with peak located at 365 nm and range from 579 nm to 508 nm, respectively. With the increase of concentration of barium, the thermal stability of the phosphors increased first when x is less than 0.5, and then it decreased when x surpasses 0.5. In addition, luminescence intensity was enhanced with the barium concentration. Under the 400 nm NUV light excitation the (Sr1-xBax) 1.95SiO4:0.05Eu2+ phosphors have a potential application in white LED.

Abstract The undoped YVO4 and Ce3+-doped YVO4 single crystals have been successfully grown by the Czochralski method in a medium frequency induction furnace. The X-ray diffraction patterns testified that all samples exhibited the pure tetragonal YVO4 crystalline phase without any parasitic phases. The optical properties of Ce3+-doped YVO4 single crystals with different doping concentrations were investigated via a combination of absorption, emission, and excitation spectra. Dependence of luminescence and absorption intensity on Ce3+ doping concentration was discussed at different excitation wavelengths. The typical transitions of Ce3+ ions and the unusual intrinsic luminescent phenomena of VO 4 3 − {\text{VO}}_{4}^{3-} groups were observed and investigated in Ce3+-doped YVO4 crystals. More attentions were paid to ascertaining the corresponding transition states, analyzing luminescent mechanism, and revealing the energy transfer from VO 4 3 − {\text{VO}}_{4}^{3-} to Ce3+ ions. In addition, the CIE chromaticity coordinates and correlated color temperature were calculated on a basis of emission spectra under different excitation wavelengths.

Intense photoluminescence (PL) has been observed at room temperature from the polycrystalline SiC samples prepared from carbon-saturated Si melt at a temperature ranging from 1500 to 1650°C. Composition and structure of the samples have been confirmed by means of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. PL measurements with 325 nm UV light excitation revealed that the room temperature PL spectrum of the samples consists of 3 luminescent bands, the peak energies of which are 2.38 eV, 2.77 eV and 3.06 eV, respectively. The 2.38 eV band is much stronger than the others. It is suggested that some extrinsic PL mechanisms associated with defect or interface states would be responsible to the intensive PL observed at room temperature.

AbstractSingle crystals of two cesium rare-earth molybdates CsLn(MoO4)2(Ln=Eu, Tb) have been prepared using the high temperature molten salt (flux) method. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses reveal that they crystallize in the orthorhombic space groupPccm(No. 49) and features a 2D layer structure that is composed of [Ln(MoO4)2]∞and [Cs]∞layers. Under near-UV light excitation, emission spectrum of CsEu(MoO4)2consists of several sharp lines due to the characteristic electronic transitions of Eu3+ions, whereas CsTb(MoO4)2exhibits characteristic green emission of Tb3+ions.

An anhydrous orthophosphate, K3Eu5(PO4)6 (tripotassium pentaeuropium hexaphosphate), has been prepared by a high-temperature solid-state reaction combined with hydrothermal synthesis, and its crystal structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis (SC-XRD). The results show that the compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c and the structure features a three-dimensional framework of [Eu5(PO4)6]∞, with the tunnel filled by K+ ions. The IR spectrum, UV–Vis spectrum and luminescence properties of polycrystalline samples of K3Eu5(PO4)6, annealed at temperatures of 650, 700, 750, 800 and 850 °C, were investigated. Although with a full Eu3+ concentration (9.96 × 1021 ions cm−3), the self-activated phosphor K3Eu5(PO4)6 shows s strong luminescence emission intensity with a quantum yield of 37%. Under near-UV light excitation (393 nm), the series of samples shows the characteristic emissions of Eu3+ ions in the visible region from 575 to 715 nm. The sample sintered at 800 °C gives the strongest emission and its lifetime sintered at 800 °C (1.88 ms) is also the longest of all.

Y2O3:Ln3+ (Ln = Eu or Tb) nanocrystals with different Ln3+ doping concentrations and average sizes were prepared by chemical self-combustion. The corresponding bulk materials with various doping concentrations were obtained by annealing the nanomaterials at high temperature. The emission spectra, excitation spectra, and X-ray diffraction spectra were used in this study. It was found that the charge transfer band of Y2O3:Eu3+ red-shifted as particle size decreased, and the charge transfer band in the 5-nm particles obviously broadened toward the long wavelength. It was also found that the profile of excitation spectra corresponding to the 4f5d (4f8 → 4f75d1) transition changed a lot with the variation of the particle size. The dependence of the excitation spectra of Y2O3:Ln3+ on particle size was investigated.
