A series of novel Li+ doped Bi3.46Ho0.04Yb0.5Ti3O12 (BHYTO: xLi, 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.15) upconversion phosphors were prepared through a sol-gel-sintering method. There exist three emission bands centered at 545 nm, 658 nm, and 756 nm in the upconversion emission spectra at 980 nm excitation, corresponding to energy transitions of 5F4/5S2 → 5I8, 5F5 → 5I8 and 5F4/5S2 → 5I7 of Ho3+, and the upconversion emission intensity of BHYTO: 0.05Li is about 2.2 times stronger than that of BHYTO samples. The luminescent lifetime of the strongest emission (545 nm) is in the range of 45.25 to 65.99 μs for the different BHYTO: xLi phosphors. The energy transfers during the upconversion pumping process from Yb3+ to Ho3+ are mainly responsible for all the emissions, each belonging to a double-photon process. Li+ mainly entered into the interspace sites or occupied Bi3+ sites in Bi4Ti3O12 host during the fabrication process according to its dosage, and the possibility is very low for Li+ to take part in the energy transfer process directly due to its lack of matching levels with 4f of Ho3+ and Yb3+. However, Li+ doping can not only increase the size of crystal grains to improve crystallinity through XRD analysis, but also reduced oxygen vacancies to decrease the number of quenching centers through XPS analysis. The improved crystallinity and reduced quenching centers are proposed to be the main causes for the enhanced upconversion luminescence of the Li+ doped BHYTO phosphor.

The Li+ co-doped Y2O3: Ho3+/Yb3+ films were prepared with sol-gel method and spin-coating technique. The effects of Li+ on the structure and luminescent properties of the films were investigated. The results show the grain size increased first and then decreased with the increase of Li+ doping concentration. The crystal size of particles composing the film got the maximum value when Li+ concentration took 4 mol%. As Li+ doping concentration increased, the optical transmittance of the Y2O3: Ho3+/Yb3+ film improved at first then reduced and got the maximum at 3 mol%. Excited with a 980-nm laser, there were two green emissions in the up-conversion emission spectra, one centered at 535 nm, the other at 550 nm, which ascribed to the 5F4→5I8 and 5S2→5I8 transitions of Ho3+, respectively. The up-conversion luminescence intensity also increased firstly and then decreased with the Li+ doping concentration increase, and got the highest value at 2 mol%.

Y2.85Er0.15Al5O3 was prepared by combustion process. Phase evolution of the synthesized powders was determined by XRD. Single-phase cubic YAG: Er3+ crystalline powders were obtained by calcining the combusted product at 1000°C and no intermidiate phase was observed. SEM morphology showed that the resultant YAG: Er3+ powders were porous. Upconversion emission spectra were measured on the powder compact pumped by a 980nm continuous wave diode laser. The relationship between pump power and luminescence intensity suggested that a two-photon process is active in this sample. The upconversion machanism of YAG: Er3+ system was also discussed.

Looking for upconverting biocompatible nanoparticles, we have prepared by the sol–gel method, silica–calcia glass nanopowders doped with different concentration of Tm3+ and Yb3+ ions (Tm3+ from 0.15 mol% up to 0.5 mol% and Yb3+ from 1 mol% up to 4 mol%) and characterized their structure, morphology, and optical properties. X-ray diffraction patterns indicated an amorphous phase of the silica-based glass with partial crystallization of samples with a higher content of lanthanides ions. Transmission electron microscopy images showed that the average size of particles decreased with increasing lanthanides content. The upconversion (UC) emission spectra and fluorescence lifetimes were registered under near infrared excitation (980 nm) at room temperature to study the energy transfer between Yb3+ and Tm3+ at various active ions concentrations. Characteristic emission bands of Tm3+ ions in the range of 350 nm to 850 nm were observed. To understand the mechanism of Yb3+–Tm3+ UC energy transfer in the SiO2–CaO powders, the kinetics of luminescence decays were studied.

Y2O3:Eu3+ thin film was synthesized by sol-gel method with inorganic salt raw materials, and the crystal structure and luminescent properties were investigated. By adding organic additive to the sol, a homogeneous film with high luminescent intensity could be obtained by dip-coating technique on the surface of alumina sheet and quartz glass. Structures of the films were studied by XRD and SEM. The excitation spectra of the films showed a wide excitation peak from 200nm to 260nm, and the emission spectra had a strongest emission peak at 611nm which revealed a close relationship with the calcining temperature.

In this paper, highly crystalline YF 3: Yb 3+/ Ln 3+( Ln = Er 3+, Tm 3+) microsheets were successfully synthesized by a surfactant-free molten salt method for the first time. The results indicated that the as-obtained samples belonged to orthorhombic system and exhibited microsheets morphology with side lengths of 30 to 80 μm and wall thickness from 1 to 1.5 μm. By changing the dopant's species ( Ln 3+), multicolor (yellow and blue) upconversion emission can be observed in YF 3: Yb 3+/ Ln 3+ microsheets under 980 nm laser diode (LD) excitation. The upconversion mechanisms in co-doping YF 3 samples were analyzed in detail based on the emission spectra. Importantly, this approach not only proposes a new alternative in synthesizing such materials, but also opens the possibility to meet the increasing commercial demand.

Abstract. Green light emitting Mn2+-doped Zn2SiO4 (Zn2SiO4:Mn2+) phosphor nano-particles were synthesized by sol-gel method combined with a furnace firing from the sol-gel solution made with ZnO, MnCO3 and tetraethoxysilan. The influences of annealing temperatures on the microstructures and photoluminescent properties of the Zn2SiO4:Mn2+ phosphors were investigated. The structural details of the phosphors were examined through XRD and SEM. The photoluminescent properties of the Zn2SiO4:Mn2+ phosphors were characterized by excitation and emission spectra. The results indicate that the XRD patterns of the Zn2SiO4:Mn2+ phosphors exhibit a willemite structure (-Zn2SiO4). Green photoluminescence whose emission peak is located at 525 nm were observed from the synthesized phosphor particles under UV excitation. The photoluminescent mechanisms of the Zn2SiO4:Mn2+ phosphors were discussed.

AbstractThe red long-lasting phosphors (LLPs) ZnxCa1–xTiO3:yPr3+ (ZCTP) were successfully prepared via the sol–gel method. The effects of Zn2+ content and Pr3+ molar concentration on the luminescent properties of ZCTP LLPs were characterized by X-ray diffraction, excitation and emission spectra, long-lasting decay curves and thermoluminescence (TL) curves. In this study, the results indicated that luminescent properties of Zn0.2Ca0.8TiO3:0.2 %Pr3+ phosphor was the best. In addition, when Pr3+ molar concentration reached 0.8 mol %, concentration quenching effect was obvious.

In view of the improvement of luminescent intensity in classical phosphors, different new techniques of synthesis have been developed. One of them is the sol-gel technique for nanopowder synthesis. Applied to a binary system Gd2O3-SiO2 doped with trivalent europium ion, very fine powder form samples have been obtained. In that case the emission intensity of 5D0→F2 electronic transition of 4f6 configuration is greatly enhanced compared to the bulk oxide. The lifetime measurements are given too. The size of nanoparticles is of about 10 nm, determined by dynamic light scattering and XRD analysis.

Erbium-doped barium titanate (BaTiO3:Er) xerogel film with a thickness of about 500 nm was formed on the porous strontium titanate (SrTiO[Formula: see text] xerogel film on Si substrate after annealing at 800[Formula: see text]C or 900[Formula: see text]C. The elaborated structures show room temperature upconversion luminescence under 980 nm excitation with the photoluminescence (PL) bands at 523, 546, 658, 800 and 830 nm corresponding to 2H[Formula: see text]4I[Formula: see text], 4S[Formula: see text]I[Formula: see text], 4F[Formula: see text]I[Formula: see text] and 4I[Formula: see text]4I[Formula: see text] transitions of trivalent erbium. Raman and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis of BaTiO3:Er\porous SrTiO3\Si structure showed the presence of perovskite phases. Its excellent up-conversion optical performance will greatly broaden its applications in perovskite solar cells and high-end anti-counterfeiting technologies.
