ABSTRACTWe present a systematic study of photo- and cathodoluminescence measurements in the visible of Terbium doped SiC:H and AlN thin films. The Terbium atomic concentrations vary from 0.9 to 10% for the SiC:H and from 0.8 to 6% for the AlN samples. For both materials the increase of the emission intensity with concentration and the subsequent quenching effect can be seen. The optimal concentration for the highest light emission is found. Photoluminescence excitation spectroscopy addresses the enhancement light emission mechanisms of the principal emission electronic transition of Terbium at ∼542 nm.

ABSTRACTThe luminescence of Tb-doped a-SiC:H thin films with different Tb concentrations under sub-bandgap photon excitation was investigated. Two independent processes were identified. The annealing induced activation of the Tb3+ and the inhibition of host-mediated non-radiative recombination paths. The integrated emission intensity is described by a rate equation model, considering these two. In this study, the luminescence enhancement with increasing annealing temperature is shown. The optimal Tb concentration and annealing temperature for the highest Tb-related light emission intensity is determined. Finally, a parameter proportional to the number of optically active ions is found through the aforementioned model.

 Spectroscopic properties of Tb3+ and Sm3+ ions co-doped in alkali aluminoborate glasses (70-x-y)B2O3.28Li2O.2Al2O3.xSm2O3.yTb2O3 (ABL:Tb,Sm) fabricated by melting method have been studied. The emission intensity of Tb3+ or Sm3+ in ABL:Tb or ABL:Sm glasses is influenced by the Tb3+ or Sm3+ doping content, and the optimum concentrations of Tb3+ and Sm3+ are 0.75 mol% and 1.0 mol%, respectively. The concentration quenching effect of Tb3+ or Sm3+ in ABL:Tb,Sm glasses occurs, and the concentration quenching mechanism is f-f interaction for either Tb3+/Sm3+. The ABL:Tb,Sm glasses can produce color emission from green to red by properly tuning the relative ratio between Tb3+ and Sm3+, the emission intensity of Tb3+/Sm3+ in ABL:Tb,Sm glasses can be enhanced by the energy transfer from Tb3+/Tb3+ and Sm3+/Sm3+. The results indicate that ABL:Tb,Sm may be a promising double emission for white light emitting diodes.
