ABSTRACTCorrelations between synthesis conditions, phase composition, and spectral properties of the sintered ceramic, thin films and single crystals of EuTa7O19 phosphors have been studied using x-ray diffractometry and temperature dependent photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy at temperatures between 18 K and 650 K. From the PL spectra of Eu3+, one can obtain information about the area of homogeneity of phases, their temperature transformations, and changes in the bonding character in the neighborhood of the luminescent ion. As a result, this information helps to optimize the synthesis parameters for luminescent materials.

It is hardly possible to obtain rare earth doped CaWO4thin films directly through electrochemical techniques. A two-step method has been proposed to synthesize CaWO4:(Eu3+,Tb3+) thin films at room temperature. X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray analysis, spectrophotometer were used to characterize their phase, composition and luminescent properties. Results reveal that (Eu3+,Tb3+)-doped CaWO4films have a tetragonal phase. When the ratio of n (Eu)/n (Tb) in the solution is up to 3:1, CaWO4:(Eu3+,Tb3+) thin film will be enriched with Tb element; on the contrary, when the ratio in the solution is lower than 1:4, CaWO4:(Eu3+,Tb3+) thin film will be enriched with Eu element. Under the excitation of 242 nm, sharp emission peaks at 612, 543, 489 and 589 nm have been observed for CaWO4:(Eu3+,Tb3+) thin films.

The series of luminescent materials of Eu3 +, Tb3 + doped Li2SrSiO4 were synthesized by a high-temperature solid-state method. The phase purity of the samples was measured by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). The luminescent properties of the samples were studied by UV-visible excitation spectra and emission spectra The It is found that the strong absorption of Eu3 + doped Li2-xSr1-xEuxSiO4 is from the 250 ~ 290 nm charge transfer band of Eu3 + and the 7F0 → 5L6 absorption transition of 393 nm. The strongest emission of the emission spectra at 393 nm is 614 nm and 701 nm, respectively, from the 5D0 → 7F2 and 5D0 → 7F4 transitions of Eu3 +. Tb3 + doped sample Li2-xSr1-xTb xSiO4 excitation spectrum is mainly composed of Tb3 + ion fd transition and charge transfer band composed of broadband, the strongest absorption at 269 nm, the emission of the main emission of 5D4 → 7F5 transition (542 nm).

ABSTRACTPu-bearing zirconolite and pyrochlore based ceramics were prepared by melting under oxidizing and reducing conditions at 1550 °C. 239Pu content in the samples ranged between ∼10 and ∼50 wt.%. Phase composition of the ceramics and Pu partitioning were studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive system (SEM/EDS). Major phases in the samples were found to be the target zirconolite and pyrochlore as well as a cubic fluorite structure oxide. Normally the Pu content in the Pu host phases was 10–12 wt.%. This corresponds to the Pu content recommended for matrices for immobilization of excess weapons plutonium. At higher Pu content (up to 50 wt.%) additional phases, such as a PuO2-based cubic fluorite-structured solid solution, perovskite, and rutile were found.

We report the synthesis of luminescent-doped core/shell quantum dots (QDs) of water-soluble manganese-doped zinc sulfide (ZnS:Mn2+/ZnS) . QDs of ZnS:Mn2+/ZnS were prepared by nucleation doping strategy, with thioglycolic acid (TGA) as stabilizer in aqueous solution. Structure and optical properties of the ZnS:Mn2+/ZnS core/shell quantum dots were characterized by X-ray diffraction and photoluminescence emission spectroscopy. The influence of the synthesis conditions on the luminescent properties of ZnS:Mn2+/ZnS QDs is discussed. Different Mn2+ concentrations, ratios of the TGA/ (Zn+Mn) and thickness of the ZnS shell were used. Results showed that the ZnS:Mn2+/ZnS QDs are water-soluble and have improved fluorescence properties. Therefore, Mn2+ -doped ZnS quantum dots could be potential candidates as fluorescent labeling agents in biology.

In this paper, Sm3+ doped Lu2W0.5Mo0.5O6, Lu2WMoO9, and Lu2(W0.5Mo0.5O4)3 materials were synthesized by using a two-step solid-state reaction method. The synthesized materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns, field emission scanning electronic micrograph (FE-SEM) pictures, photoluminescence (PL) excitation and emission spectra, and temperature-dependent emission intensities. Orange-reddish light could be observed from the phosphors under ultraviolet (UV) 365 nm light. The Sm3+ doped Lu2WMoO9 had enhanced PL intensities compared to the other two materials. The excitation, the energy transfer, the nonradiative relaxation, and the emission processes were illustrated by using schematic diagrams of Sm3+ in Lu2MoWO9. The optimal Sm3+ doping concentration was explored in the enhancing luminescence of Lu2WMoO9. By combing the Sm3+ doped Lu2WMoO9 to UV 365 nm chips, near white lighting emitting diode (W-LED) were obtained. The phosphor can be used in single phosphor-based UV W-LEDs.

Eu3+-doped SmBa3B9O18 luminescent materials were synthesized by high temperature solid state reactions. The structure and photoluminescence properties of Sm(1−x)EuxBa3B9O18 (x = 0.2, 0.4, and 0.6) were investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectra. The results show that doping of Eu3+ ions does not change the structure of SmBa3B9O18. The luminescence is mainly the characteristic Eu3+ ion luminescence. No concentration quenching processes occur with the increment of Eu3+ concentration. The work implies that SmBa3B9O18 is a potential host material and europium-doped SmBa3B9O18 may find application in display and optical devices.

ABSTRACTIndium and cerium added cobalt-antimony based skutterudites with different filling fractions were synthesized using different annealing synthesis parameters. Phase homogeneity and microstructure of the resulting as-cast material were examined by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The skutterudite material was further compacted using a current-assisted short-term sintering device. Temperature dependent measurements of the Seebeck coefficient, electrical and thermal conductivity were carried out on the compacted specimens in the temperature range of 350 K-700 K. Results indicate significant differences in the transport properties between the slowly cooled and quenched as‑cast materials and also with different filling fractions. Based on the measured transport properties the dimensionless figure of merit ZT was calculated for different filling fractions of indium and cerium. Among these compositions a ZTmax of 1.1 at 700 K was obtained.

The results of studying the phase composition of advanced calcium phosphates Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2, β-Ca3(PO4)2, α-Ca3(PO4)2, CaHPO4 · 2H2O, Ca8(HPO4)2(PO4)4 · 5H2O using an x-ray diffractometer with a curved position-sensitive detector are presented. Optimal experimental conditions (angular positions of the x-ray tube and detector, size of the slits, exposure time) were determined with allowance for possible formation of the impurity phases during synthesis. The construction features of diffractometers with a position-sensitive detector affecting the profile characteristics of x-ray diffraction peaks are considered. The composition for calibration of the diffractometer (a mixture of sodium acetate and yttrium oxide) was determined. Theoretical x-ray diffraction patterns for corresponding calcium phosphates are constructed on the basis of the literature data. These x-ray diffraction patterns were used to determine the phase composition of the advanced calcium phosphates. The features of advanced calcium phosphates, which should be taken into account during the phase analysis, are indicated. The powder of high-temperature form of tricalcium phosphate strongly adsorbs water from the environment. A strong texture is observed on the x-ray diffraction spectra of dicalcium phosphate dihydrate. A rather specific x-ray diffraction pattern of octacalcium phosphate pentahydrate revealed the only one strong peak at small angles. In all cases, significant deviations are observed for the recorded angular positions and relative intensity of the diffraction peaks. The results of the study of experimentally obtained mixtures of calcium phosphate are presented. It is shown that the graphic comparison of experimental x-ray diffraction spectra and pre-recorded spectra of the reference calcium phosphates and possible impurity phases is the most effective method. In this case, there is no need for calibration. When using this method, the total time for analysis of one sample is no more than 10 min.
