Structure and luminescent properties of luminous polypropylene fiber based on Sr2MgSi2OT：EU^2＋,Dy^3＋

The luminous polypropylene fiber based on long afterglow luminescent material Sr2MgSi2O7：Eu^2＋,Dy^3＋was prepared by melt-spinning process. Micro-morphology, phase composition, crystal structure, spectral features and afterglow properties of the lu-minescent fiber were tested and analyzed. The results indicated that the fiber had independent superposition phase features of both Sr2MgSi2O7：Eu2＋,Dy3＋and polypropylene. The range of its excitation wavelength was located between 250-450 nm;therefore, the luminescent fiber could be excited by ultraviolet or visible light. It could emit blue light of 460 nm wavelength after excitation, which was caused by the 5d-4f transition of Eu^2＋ions within the host lattice. The initial luminescent intensity was more than 0.8 cd/m^2, and afterglow life lasted 7 h. The afterglow decay was composed of rapid-decaying and slow-decaying processes, and the decay charac-teristics depended on the depth and concentration of trap level in the Sr2MgSi2O7：Eu^2＋,Dy^3＋.     

Preparation and Luminescence Properties of the New Long Phosphorescent Phosphors Ba1-x Cax Al2O4 ： Eu^2＋ , Dy^3＋

New long phosphorescent phosphors Ba1-x CaxAl2O4:Eu^2 , Dy^3 with tunable color emission were prepared and studied. The emission spectra show that the tuning range of the color emission of the phosphors is between 498 and 440 nm, which is dependent on x, under the excitation of UV. The wavelength of the afterglow increases with the increasing of x until x equals 0.6. The XRD patterns show that the single phase limit in the phosphors is below x value of 0.4.The Thermolumineseence spectra were measured to investigate the traps created by the doping of Dy^3 .     

Investigation on luminescence properties of Ln^3＋ doped Sr3EuMgSi2O8 （Ln=Dy, Er, Ho）

The luminescent properties of Sr2.97MgSi2O8:Eu2+0.01 phosphors were investigated with different Ln3+0.02(Ln3+:Dy3+,Er3+,Ho3+) co-dopants. The co-dopants had no influence on both the structure of the lattice and the position of the emission peak. However, the afterglow properties of samples were enhanced with different co-dopants. The afterglow duration of the Dy3+ co-doped sample was longer than that of the others. Furthermore, the co-doping samples had stronger thermoluminescence (TL) intensity and therefore longer afterglow duration. At last, the self-reduction of Eu3+→Eu2+ was observed in an silicate compound of Sr3-xMgSi2O8:xEu phosphor in air condition. This is the first time to show a blue long afterglow phosphor synthesized avoiding reducing atmosphere.

Long-Lasting Properties of Rare Earth-Doped Y2O2S Phosphors

The aim of this presentation is to report a new result of afterglow materials. The Y2O2S:Ln^3 (Ln = Sm, Tm)phosphors show bright reddish orange and orange-yellow colors when excited by UV or visible light. The main spectroscopic characterizations of Sm^3 and Tm^3 in yttrium oxysulfide and their long-lasting phosphorescence were measured and discussed in this presentation. Their long-lasting phosphorescence can be seen by the naked eyes clearly for about one hour in the dark room after the irradiation light sources were removed. XRD and photoluminescence (PL) spectra as well as the luminance decay were used to characterize these long-lasting phosphorescence phosphors. The results of XRD indicate that the products synthesized through the flux fusion method under 1050℃ for 6 h have a good crystallization without any detectable amount of impurity phase. Both the PL spectra and luminance decay results reveal that these phosphors have efficient luminescent and good long-lasting properties. We believe that the experimental data gathered in our present work will be useful in finding some new long-lasting phosphors with different colors.     

Magnetic properties and magnetization behavior of SmCo-based magnets with TbCu7-type structure

The nanocrystalline magnets with nominal compositions of Sm1-xLuxCo6.8Zr0.2(x=0,0.2,0.4,0.6)were prepared directly by the intensive milling.The effects of Lu content on the phase structure,the magnetic properties,and magnetization behaviors were also investigated.The XRD patterns of the as-milled samples showed a single SmCo7 phase with TbCu7 structure.Lu addition was proved to result in relevant improvements in the microstructure and magnetic properties,especially in the maximum energy product(BH)max.It was shown that a higher maximum energy product and coercivity of about 17.47 kJ/m3 and 473.45 kA/m were obtained in the sample with x=0.2.From the analysis of the magnetization reversal behavior,it was found that a stronger intergrain exchange coupling interaction was observed in the samples with Lu-doping.From the studies of the coercivity mechanism,it was shown that nucleation model was the dominant magnetization reversal process at the elevated temperature.     

Effect of Ho^3＋ Ion on Luminescent Property of CaGaeS4：Eu^2＋

The afterglow luminescent property and thermo-luminescence (TL) of CaGa2S4：Eu^2 , Ho^3 were systemateally investigated. The afterglow of Eu and Ho Co-doped CaGa2S4 shows a broadband emission at 552 nm, which is the same as that of Eu doped CaGa2S4 only. And the decay behavior of CaGa2S4 Eu^2 , Ho^3 was investigated, which shows that CaGa2S4: Eu^2 , Ho^3 is a phosphor with long after-glow, whereas the CaGazS4:Eu^2 is a phosphor with-out long afterglow. Comparison of TL curves and 3D-TL emission spectra of CaGa2S4:Eu^2 ,Ho^3 and Ca-C, a2S4:Eu^2 show that a new trap center is produced at about 80℃, which is the basic reason of CaGazS4:Eu^2 ,Ho^3 with long afterglow.     

Synthesis of Long Afterglow Phosphor CaAl2Si2O8 ：Eu^2＋, Dy^3＋ via Sol-Gel Technique and Its Optical Properties

The long afterglow phosphor CaAl2Si2O8：Eu^2＋ , Dy^3＋ was prepared by a sol-gel method. The sol-gel process and the structure of the phosphor were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction analysis （XRD）. It is found that the single anorthite phase formed at about 1000 %, which is 300 % lower than that required for the conventional solid state reaction. The obtained phosphor powders are easier to grind than those of solid state method and the partical size of phosphor has a relative narrow distribution of 200 to 500 nm. The photoluminescence and afterglow properties of the phosphor were also characterized. An obvious blue shift occurs in the excitation and emission spectra of phosphors obtained by sol-gel and solid state reaction methods. The change of the fluorescence spectra can be attributed to the sharp decrease of the crystalline grain size of the phosphor resulted from the sol-gel technique.

Co-Precipitation Synthesis and Spectral Characteristics of Long Afterglow Phosphor Y2O2 S： Sm^3＋, Mg^2＋ , Ti^4＋

Y2O2S：Sm^3＋, Mg^2＋, Ti^4＋ phosphor was synthesized by co-precipitation method. The crystalline structure of all synthesized phosphors was investigated by XRD. The result showed that all synthesized phosphors had a hexagonal crystal structure, which was the same as Y2O2S. The emission spectrum and excitation spectrum were measured, and the effect of Sm^3 ＋ molar ratio on the spectra was discussed. The emission spectra of the phosphors showed three emission peaks due to typical transitions of Sm^3 ＋ （4G5/2→6HJ ,J = 5/2, 7/2, 9/2）, and the emission peaks at 606 nm was stronger than others. With the increase of Sm^3 ＋ molar ratio, the emission intensity was strengthened. The excitation peaks were ascribed to the representative energy transition 4f→4f of Ti^4＋ phosphor prepared by co-precipitation method was Sm^3＋ ions. The results indicated that the Y2O2S ： Sm^3＋ , Mg^2＋ , an efficient long afterglow phosphor.     

A white long-lasting phosphor Y2O2S:Tb3+, Sm3+: an improvement of Y2O2S:Tb3+

As an improvement of reported Y202S:Tb3 , a white-light long-lasting phosphor: Y2O2S:Tb3 , Sm3 was prepared by the solid-state reaction. The photo-luminescence spectra showed that the position and shape of Th3 and Sm3 emissions under UV excitation were similar in this host, which ensured a stable white emission color (daylight standard of IEC) under different excitations. The decay curves of co-doped samples indicated that the decay times of emissions of the two ions were close. The thermo-luminescence measurement suggested that the traps created by the doped Sm3 ions were helpful to postpone the white afterglow of co-doped samples. Therefore, thefunction of co-doped Sm3 ions was confirmned as improving the white emission colors of samples and acting as new trap centers.

The phosphors of （Bi1- x Smx ） 2ZnB2O7 （ x = 0. 01, 0. 03, 0. 05, 0. 07, and 0. 09） were synthesized by conventional solid state reaction. The purity of all samples was checked by X-ray powder diffraction （XRD）. XRD analysis shows that all these compounds are of a single phase of Bi2ZnB2O7, indicating that the Bi^3＋ in Bi2ZnB2O7 can be partly replaced by the Sm^3＋ without the change of crystal structure. The excitation and emission spectra at room temperature show the typical 4f-4f transitions of Sm^3＋ . The dominant excitation line is around 404 nm due to ^6H5/2→^4K11/2 and the emission spectrum consists of a series of lines at 563, 599, 646, and 704 nm due to ^4G5/2→^6H5/2, ^6H7/2, ^6H9/2, and ^6H11/2, respectively. The optimal concentration of Sm^3＋ in Bi2ZnB2O7 is about 3mol% （relative to lmol Bi^3＋ ） and the critical distance Rc was calculated as 2.1 nm. The temperature dependence of the emission intensity of Bi1.94Sm0.06ZnB2O7 was examined in the temperature range between 100 and 450 K. The quenching temperature where the intensity has dropped to half of the initial intensity is 280 K. The lifetime for Sm^3＋ in Bi1.94Sm0.06ZnB2O7 is fitted as a value of 0.29 and 1.03 ms.     

Optical performance study of Sr_2ZnSi_2O_7:Eu~(2+),Dy~(3+), SrAl_2O_4:Eu~(2+),Dy~(3+) and Y_2O_2S:Eu~(3+),Mg~(2+),Ti~(4+) ternary luminous fiber

In this study, down-conversion fluorescent powder of Sr_2ZnSi_2O_7:Eu~(2+),Dy~(3+), SrAl_2O_4:Eu~(2+),Dy~(3+) and Y_2O_2S:Eu~(3+),Mg~(2+),Ti~(4+), which were the common three primary colors materials with long afterglow, were synthesized by high temperature solid state method. The blends of rare earth(RE) luminescent materials have been of interest to reinvest the luminescent characteristics of polyethylene terephtahalate(PET) luminous fiber. The scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and an inversion fluorescence microscope were used to characterize the surface morphology and the dispersion of inclusion. Through analysis of microcosmic morphology, three typical dispersions of luminescent particles were summarized. The X-ray diffraction indicated that the phase structure of fiber samples and crystal structure of luminescence materials kept complete after prilling and spinning. From the fluorescence spectra and CIE 1931 coordinates, it could be found that different combinations of luminous fibers were desired to obtain divers colors emission luminous fiber. And the fiber samples were a light sensation which could induct different excitation wavelengths and convert it down to different colors. The afterglow decay curve and its differential curve were summarized indicating the three decay stages. The decay curve and decay rate curve showed that the contents of Sr_2ZnSi_2O_7:Eu~(2+),Dy~(3+), SrAl_2O_4:Eu~(2+),Dy~(3+) and Y_2O_2S:Eu~(3+),Mg~(2+),Ti~(4+) had obvious influence on the afterglow of fiber samples.
