Design, synthesis, crystal structure and luminescent properties introduced by Eu3+ of a new type of rare-earth borophosphate CsNa2REE2(BO3)(PO4)2 (REE = Y, Gd)
Keyword(s):
This work provides a novel host lattice template CsNa2REE2(BO3)(PO4)2 (REE = Y, Gd, Lu) for Eu3+ luminescence, with a linear arrangement of REE3+ ions that restricts the occurrence of concentration quenching even for fully concentrated Eu3+.
