As a development on previous research on single crystals of Pr3+-doped yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ), we report here the preparation and optical properties of Yb/Pr co-doped YSZ single crystals with different Yb2O3 concentrations. Results from X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy indicated that all of the crystal samples had a cubic phase structure, and transmission was ≥88% in the 550–780 nm range. Photoluminescence (PL) under excitation with a 980 nm laser showed upconversion emission, and several peaks were observed centered on 448 nm, 508 nm, 525 nm, 542 nm, 617 nm and 656 nm. The effects of excited state absorption (ESA), energy transfer upconversion (ETU), cross relaxation (CR), and cooperative energy transfer (CET) on the upconversion luminescence and energy transition mechanism in YSZ crystals were further studied. The fluorescence lifetime of the 3P0 → 3H5 transition at 542 nm reached 207 μs, which shows that the samples are of potential use for laser and fluorescence output.

ABSTRACT: One of the major shortcomings of silicon (Si) as a semiconductor material is its inability to yield efficient light emission. There has been a continued interest in adding rare earth ion impurities such as erbium (Er) to the Si lattice to act as light emitting centers. The low band gap of Si however has complicated this practice by quenching and absorbing this possible emission. Increasing the band gap of the host has been successfully tried in the case of gallium nitride (GaN) [1] and Si-rich oxide (SRO) [2] alloys. A similar approach has been tried here, where Er oxide (ErOx) nanocrystals have been formed in a yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) host deposited on a Si (100) substrate. The YSZ is deposited as a heteroepitaxial, insulating layer on the Si substrate by a reactive sputtering technique. The Er is also incorporated by a sputtering process from a metallic target and its placement in the YSZ host can be easily controlled. The device structure formed is a simple metal contact/insulator/phosphor sandwich. The device has been found to emit visible green light at low bias voltages. The advantage of this material is that it is much more structured than SiO2 which can theoretically lead to higher emission intensity.

The effect of yttria concentration (0-33.4 mol%), extraction rates (0.17, 0.33, 0.50, and 0.67 mm s-1), and the number of layers (up to four) on the phase content, surface defects, thickness, hardness, adhesion strength, and wear rate of yttria-stabilized zirconia coatings produced by sol-gel/dip-coating were studied for its use on thermolabile substrates. At 700°C, a metastable tetragonal phase ( t ″ ) was obtained even with 33.4 mol% yttria when heat treated for 24 hours; however, a fully cubic structure was attained by extending the heat treatment up to 48 hours as confirmed by Raman spectroscopy. Furthermore, it was necessary to use withdrawal speeds of at least 0.67 mm s-1 to produce defect-free coatings. Although the coatings were produced at low temperature, they showed 41% lower wear rate than steel and an adhesion strength of 30 MPa. Our work stresses the importance of the heat treatment history on the stabilization of the cubic phase in sol-gel YSZ coatings.
