Lithium-containing silicate compounds have attracted so much attention in recent years for applications in energy storage and illumination source due to their rigid structure and good electrical conductivity. In this study, a Eu³⁺ doped lithium-containing silicate red phosphor, Li₂Ca₄Si₄O₁₃:Eu³⁺, was explored by using structural computational simulations and systematic experiments for multifunctional applications. As a result, due to the quite non-central symmetry of the Ca²⁺ sites (C₁ symmetry), the strong 4f-4f excitations in near ultraviolet region were observed. Under near ultraviolet and cathode ray light excitation, Li₂Ca₄Si₄O₁₃:Eu³⁺ phosphor has an efficient red emission with good thermal stability and ageing resistance. Furthermore, Li₂Ca₄Si₄O₁₃:Eu³⁺ phosphor exhibits a concentration-sensitive behavior induced by the change of site symmetry. The results show that it is feasible to develop near-ultraviolet and cathode ray light excited red phosphors in lithium-containing silicate compounds.

Mn⁴⁺ activated fluoride red phosphors, as candidate red materials in white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs), have received widespread attention. However, the poor water stability limits their application. Herein, a novel dodec-fluoride red phosphor Na₃Li₃In₂F₁₂:Mn⁴⁺ with good waterproof stability was successfully synthesized by solvothermal method. The crystal structure, optical property, micro-morphology, element composition, waterproof property and thermal behavior of Na₃Li₃In₂F₁₂:Mn⁴⁺ phosphor were analyzed.

In this study, an orange emitting afterglow phosphor of Zn₂SnO₄:Eu³⁺ was fabricated using the co-precipitation & hydrothermal method, and then annealed in Ar atmosphere at 1000 °C. X-ray diffraction, Raman spectra, EDX, fluorescence spectrometer, SEM and TEM were performed to characterize the target products.

A far-red-emitting (Gd,Y)3(Ga,Al)5O12:Mn2+ ceramic phosphor with enhanced thermal stability for plant cultivation

As for plants, far-red (FR) light with wavelength from 700 nm to 740 nm is critical for processes of photosynthesis and photomorphogenesis. Light-controlled development depends on light to control cell differentiation, structural and functional changes, and finally converge into the formation of tissues and organs. Phosphor converted FR emission under LED excitation is a cost-effective and high-efficient way to provide artificial FR light source. With the aim to develop an efficient FR phosphor that can promote the plant growth, a series of gadolinium yttrium gallium garnet (GYGAG) transparent ceramic phosphors co-doped with Mn²⁺ and Si⁴⁺ have been fabricated via chemical co-precipitation method, followed sintered in O₂ and hot isostatic pressing in this work. Under UV excitation, the phosphor exhibited two bright and broadband red emission spectra due to Mn²⁺: ⁴T₁ → ⁶A₁ spin-forbidden transition, and one of which located in the right FR region. And then, Ce³⁺ ions were co-doped as the activator to enhance the absorption at blue light region and the emission of Mn²⁺. It turns out that the emission band of GYGAG transparent ceramic phosphors matches well with the absorption band of phytochrome P_FR, which means they are promising to be applied in plant cultivation light-emitting diodes (LEDs) for modulating plant growth. Besides, the thermal stability of this material was investigated systematically, and an energy transferring model involves defects was also proposed to explain the phenomenon of abnormal temperature quenching.

Non-rare earth Mn⁴⁺ ion-doped red oxide phosphors have great potential for applications in warm white light-emitting diodes (wLEDs) due to their low cost and stable physicochemical properties. Herein, a series of Ba₂LaTaO₆ (BLTO): Mn⁴⁺ phosphors were successfully synthesized by the high-temperature solid-state method. The theoretical values of the band gap calculated by the density functional theory are close to the experimental values obtained by the absorption spectroscopy. In addition, the phosphors have a broad excitation band in the wavelength range of 280–550 nm and emit red light at the peak wavelength of 681 nm under excitation. The concentration quenching of the BLTO: Mn⁴⁺ phosphor was caused by dipole-dipole interactions. The activation energy and the average decay lifetimes of the samples were calculated. Meanwhile, the effects of synthesis temperature and Li⁺ ion doping on the luminescence performance of the samples were also investigated. Satisfactorily, the color purity and internal quantum efficiency of the phosphor reached 98.3% and 26.8%, respectively. Further, the samples were prepared as red-light components for warm wLEDs. The correlated color temperature, color rendering index, and luminous efficiency of the representative devices driven by 60 mA current were 5190 K, 83.3, and 81.59 lm/W, respectively. This work shows that the BLTO: Mn⁴⁺ red phosphor with excellent luminescence performance can be well applied to warm wLEDs.

Tunable luminescence and energy transfer properties of MgY4Si3O13: Ce3+, Tb3+, Eu3+ phosphors

The tricolor-emitting MgY₄Si₃O₁₃: Ce³⁺, Tb³⁺, Eu³⁺ phosphors for ultraviolet-LED have been prepared via a high-temperature solid-state method. X-ray diffraction, photoluminescence emission, excitation spectra and fluorescence lifetime were utilized to characterize the structure and the properties of synthesized samples. Two different lattice sites for Ce³⁺ are occupied from the host structure and the normalized PL and PLE spectra. The emissions of single-doped Ce³⁺/Tb³⁺/Eu³⁺ are located in blue, green and red region, respectively. The energy transfer from Ce³⁺ to Tb³⁺ and from Tb³⁺ to Eu³⁺ has been validated by spectra and decay curves and the energy transfer mode from Tb³⁺ to Eu³⁺ was calculated to be electric dipole-dipole interactions. By adjusting the content of Tb³⁺ and Eu³⁺ in MgY₄Si₃O₁₃: Ce³⁺, Tb³⁺, Eu³⁺, the CIE coordinates can be changed from blue to green and eventually generate white light under UV excitation. All the results indicate that the MgY₄Si₃O₁₃: Ce³⁺, Tb³⁺, Eu³⁺ phosphors are potential candidates in the application of UV-WLEDs.     

Ce3+ doped Lu3Al5O12 ceramics prepared by spark plasma sintering technology using micrometre powders: Microstructure,luminescence, and scintillation properties

Ce³⁺ doped Lu₃Al₅O₁₂ (Ce:LuAG) ceramics were fabricated by the solid-state reaction method through spark plasma sintering (SPS) from 1350 °C to 1700 °C for 5 min at a pressure of 50 MPa using micro powders. The average grain size of the SPSed ceramics gradually grew from 0.42 µm (1400 °C) to 1.55 µm (1700 °C), which is nearly one order of magnitude lower than that of vacuum sintered (VSed) Ce:LuAG ceramics (~24.6 µm). Characteristic Ce³⁺ emission peaking at around 510 nm appeared and 92% photoluminescence intensity of room temperature can be reserved at 200 °C revealing excellent thermal stability. The maximum radioluminescence intensity reached around 3 times of VSed Ce:LuAG ceramics and 7.8 times of BGO crystals. The maximum scintillation light yield under γ-ray (¹³⁷Cs) excitation reached 9634 pho/MeV @ 2 μs. It is concluded that SPS technology is a feasible way to develop Ce:LuAG ceramics and further optical enhancement can be expected.     

Red-emitting enhancement of Bi4Si3O12:Sm3+ phosphor by Pr3+ co-doping for White LEDs application

In this account, Bi₄Si₃O₁₂:Sm³⁺ and (Bi₄Si₃O₁₂:Sm³⁺, Pr³⁺) red phosphors were prepared by solution combustion method fueled by citric acid at 900 °C for 1 h. The effects of co-doping Pr³⁺ ions on red emission properties of Bi₄Si₃O₁₂:Sm³⁺ phosphors, as well as the mechanism of interaction between Sm³⁺ and Pr³⁺ ions were investigated by various methods. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed that smaller amounts of doped rare earth ions did not change the crystal structure and particle morphology of the phosphors. The photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL) indicated that shape and position of the emission peaks of (Bi₄Si₃O₁₂:Sm³⁺, Pr³⁺) phosphors excited at λ_ex=403 nm were similar to those of Bi₄Si₃O₁₂:Sm³⁺ phosphors. The strongest emission peak was recorded at 607 nm, which was attributed to the ⁴G_5/2→⁶H_7/2 transition of the Sm³⁺ ion. The photoluminescence intensities of Bi₄Si₃O₁₂:Sm³⁺ phosphors were significantly improved by co-doping with Pr³⁺ ions and were maximized at Sm³⁺ and Pr³⁺ ions doping concentrations of 4 mol% and 0.1 mol%, respectively. The characteristic peaks of Sm³⁺ ions were displayed in the emission spectra of (Bi₄Si₃O₁₂:Sm³⁺, Pr³⁺) phosphors excited at respectively λ_ex=443 nm and λ_ex=481 nm (Pr:³H₄→³P₂, ³H₄→³P₀). This indicated the existence of Pr³⁺→Sm³⁺ energy transfer in (Bi₄Si₃O₁₂:Sm³⁺, Pr³⁺) phosphors.     

Development of red-emitting Ba2LaSbO6:Mn4+ phosphors for latent fingerprint detection

Latent fingerprints provide crucial affirmations of identity in forensic science. However, they are microscopic. In this study, novel fluorescence materials, Ba₂LaSbO₆:Mn⁴⁺ (BLSO:Mn⁴⁺) phosphors, were developed by a sol–gel method for the fluorescence imaging of latent fingerprints. The structural properties of the phosphors were investigated by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and its Rietveld refinement analyses, and transmission electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy techniques. The photoluminescence properties of the BLSO:Mn⁴⁺ phosphors were evaluated comprehensively by recording the emission, excitation, and decay curves. The BLSO:Mn⁴⁺ phosphors provide a high-intensity red emission at 677 nm under 350 nm excitation caused by the ²E_g→⁴A_2g transition of Mn⁴⁺. The optimum concentration of Mn⁴⁺ in the BLSO host was determined to be ~0.2 mol%. The calculated Commission International de L'Eclairage (CIE) chromaticity coordinates (0.716, 0.283) of the emission from the BLSO:Mn⁴⁺ phosphor are located in the pure red region of the CIE 1931 diagram. The red-emitting BLSO:0.2Mn⁴⁺ phosphor was used as a fluorescence imaging powder for visualizing latent fingerprints on various substrates with high resolution, high contrast, and high efficiency, as well as good selectivity.     

Preparation of MGF phosphor by O2 postannealing and impact on luminescence properties and crystal lattice

Mn⁴⁺-activated phosphors, Mg₂₈Ge₁₀O_48-δF_δ:Mn⁴⁺ (MGFs), can be obtained through an oxygen postannealing process. Analyses of the crystal structure and elemental composition by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electron probe microanalysis (EPMA), respectively, indicated that under an O₂ atmosphere, oxygen atoms were substituted with fluorine atoms in the original MGF structure to leach the fluorine atoms with germanium atoms as GeF₄ by oxygen postannealing. The MGF phosphor annealed in O₂ exhibited ~1.3 times higher quantum efficiency (QE) than that annealed in ambient air. The Raman spectroscopy results suggested that an increase in the content of the [Mn⁴⁺O₆] octahedron led to an increase in the QE values. Additionally, the relaxation of lattice defects in the lattice interior and on the surface observed by XRD and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurements could explain the change in thermal quenching behavior between the different atmospheres, and the decrease in lattice defects increased the QE. The investigation of MGF phosphors prepared by different processes provides insight into the relationships among the surface and local structures, chemical composition, and photoluminescence properties. The optimized synthetic procedure increases the Mn⁴⁺ content and decreases the Mn²⁺ and Mn³⁺ contents in the phosphor, which drastically increases the luminescence efficiency.     

Synthesis and photoluminescence properties of Mn4+-doped magnetoplumbite-related aluminate X-type Ca2Mg2Al28O46 and W-type CaMg2Al16O27 red phosphors

Novel Mn⁴⁺-doped magnetoplumbite-related aluminate X-type Ca₂Mg₂Al₂₈O₄₆ and W-type CaMg₂Al₁₆O₂₇ red phosphors were synthesized by solid-state reaction, and we investigated their photoluminescence properties. X-type Ca₂Mg₂Al₂₈O₄₆:Mn⁴⁺ and W-type CaMg₂Al₁₆O₂₇:Mn⁴⁺ exhibited red photoluminescence, with peaks at 655 and 656 nm, arising from the spin-forbidden ²E→⁴A₂ transition of Mn⁴⁺ under near-ultraviolet and blue light excitation, respectively. Therefore, these red phosphors can be excited by near ultraviolet or blue LED light. The photoluminescence properties of these phosphors were similar because magnetoplumbite-related structures crystallize similarly, forming structures consisting of stacked S and R blocks. From these results, we confirmed that magnetoplumbite-related compounds can act as the host structure for Mn⁴⁺-doped phosphors.     

Rare-earth-free Li5La3Ta2O12:Mn4+ deep-red-emitting phosphor: Synthesis and photoluminescence properties

Li₅La₃Ta₂O₁₂:Mn⁴⁺ (LLTO:Mn⁴⁺) phosphors are prepared in air via high-temperature solid-state method and investigated for their crystal structures and luminescence properties. LLTO:Mn⁴⁺ phosphor under excitation at 314 nm shows deep-red emission peaking at 714 nm due to the ²E→⁴A₂ transition of Mn⁴⁺ ion. The excitation bands in the range 220 - 570 nm are attributed to the Mn⁴⁺ - O^2- charge-transfer band and the ⁴A_2g→⁴T_1g, ²T_2g, and ⁴T_2g transitions of Mn⁴⁺, respectively. The optimal Mn⁴⁺ ion concentration is ~0.4 mol%. The concentration quenching mechanism in LLTO:Mn⁴⁺ phosphor is electric dipole-dipole interaction. The luminous mechanism and temperature quenching phenomenon are explained by the Tanabe-Sugano energy level diagram and the configurational coordinate diagram of Mn⁴⁺ in the octahedron, respectively. The experimental results indicate that LLTO:Mn⁴⁺ phosphor has a potential application prospect as candidate of deep-red component in light-emitting diode (LED) lighting.     

Synthesis and luminescence enhancement of red-emitting Sr9Y(PO4)7:Eu3+ phosphor through Gd3+ co-doping for white light-emitting diodes

A series of Sr₉Y(PO₄)₇:Eu³⁺ and Sr₉Y(PO₄)₇:Eu³⁺, Gd³⁺ red-emitting phosphors were prepared via a high-temperature solid-state method, Gd³⁺ ion was co-doped in Sr₉Y(PO₄)₇:Eu³⁺ as sensitizer to enhance the luminescence property. The X-ray diffraction results verify that the structure of the as-prepared samples is consistent with the standard Sr₉Y(PO₄)₇ phase. All the Sr₉Y(PO₄)₇:Eu³⁺ samples show both characteristic emission peaks at 594 nm and 614 nm under near-ultraviolet excitation of 394 nm. The co-doping of Gd³⁺ significantly improves the luminescence intensity of the Sr₉Y(PO₄)₇:Eu³⁺ phosphors due to the crystal field environment effect and energy transfer of Gd³⁺→Eu³⁺ caused by the introduction of Gd³⁺, especially Sr₉Y(PO₄)₇:0.11Eu³⁺, 0.05Gd³⁺, which emission intensity is higher than that of Sr₉Y(PO₄)₇:0.11Eu³⁺ by 1.21 times. The color purity and lifetime of Sr₉Y(PO₄)₇:0.11Eu³⁺, 0.05Gd³⁺ phosphor are 88.26% and 3.7615 ms, respectively. A w-LED device was packaged via coating the as-prepared phosphor on n-UV chip of 395 nm with commercial phosphors. These results exhibit that the Sr₉Y(PO₄)₇:Eu³⁺, Gd³⁺ red-emitting phosphor can be used as a red component in the w-LEDs application.     

Preparation,microstructures, and mechanical properties of directionally solidified Al2O3/Lu3Al5O12 eutectic ceramics

Al₂O₃/Lu₃Al₅O₁₂ (LuAG) directionally solidified eutectic (DSE) ceramics with two solidification rates were prepared utilizing optical floating zone (OFZ) technique. The microstructures (eutectic morphology, preferred growth direction and interface orientation) of Al₂O₃/LuAG were characterized, and the mechanical properties (Vickers hardness and fracture toughness) were compared with those of Al₂O₃/REAG (RE = Y, Er, and Yb). Results show that Al₂O₃/LuAG with solidification rate of 30 mm/h has established preferred growth direction in both Al₂O₃ and LuAG phases with cellular eutectic structures. While Al₂O₃/LuAG with solidification rate of 10 mm/h only shows preferred growth direction in Al₂O₃ phase and presents degenerate irregular eutectic microstructures. Besides, Al₂O₃/LuAG exhibits higher hardness compared with Al₂O₃/REAG (RE = Y, Er, and Yb). In addition, a special attention is focused on the relations among rare earth ionic radius, eutectic microstructures, and mechanical properties of these DSE ceramics. It is demonstrated that a smaller rare earth ionic radius could lead to larger eutectic interspacing as well as higher Vickers hardness of DSE Al₂O₃/REAG, revealing the possibility and feasibility of microstructure control and mechanical properties optimization for DSE Al₂O₃/REAG ceramics by tailoring the rare earth elements.     

Crystal structure and luminescence mechanism of novel Fe3+-doped Mg0.752Al2.165O4 deep red-emitting phosphors

Nonstoichiometric alumina-rich spinel provides diverse and changeable local environments for transition-metal dopants. In this contribution, novel Mg_0.752Al_2.165−xO₄:xFe³⁺ deep red-emitting phosphors were designed and prepared by the solid-state reaction method. The red emission presents an unexpected shift from 735 to 770 nm by comparing with Fe³⁺-doped MgAl₂O₄. The excitation spectrum of Mg_0.752Al_2.165−xO₄:xFe³⁺ is broadened in the UV region with a new strong peak at 320 nm. The crystal structure refinement and NMR spectra fitting reveal that the cation vacancies and disorder increase with excess Al³⁺ entering the spinel crystal lattice. According to the results of EPR, NMR, and PL/PLE measurements, it was proposed that the Fe³⁺ ions locate at the distorted octahedral coordination. The changes of the local structure of Fe³⁺ ions promote the doublet state's involvement in the d−d transition. It was proposed that the new excitation peak at 320 nm in Mg_0.752Al_2.165−xO₄:xFe³⁺ is associated with the transitions from the ground state ⁶A_1g(⁶S) to the ⁴A_2g(⁴F)/T_1g(⁴P) and doublet states. The transition between the lower energy excited state of ²T_2g(²I) and ⁶A_1g(⁶S) mainly contributes to the deep red emission and the red-shifting effect.     

Improving the luminescence properties and powder morphologies of red-emitting Sr0.8Ca0.19AlSiN3:0.01Eu2+ phosphors for high CRIs white LEDs by adding fluxes

Red-emitting Sr_0.8Ca_0.19AlSiN₃:0.01Eu²⁺ phosphor with halide fluxes for use in the production of white light-emitting diodes (white LEDs) with high-colour rendering indices (CRIs) was prepared through the high-temperature solid-state method. Fluoride (NaF, SrF₂, BaF₂, CaF₂, AlF₃·3H₂O and CeF₃), chloride (NH₄Cl, BaCl₂, MgCl₂, NaCl and LiCl) and composite fluxes (NaF + SrF₂, SrF₂+NH₄Cl and NaF + NH₄Cl) were applied in the phosphors. NaF, SrF₂, NH₄Cl and NaF + SrF₂ fluxes had prominent effects on the characteristics of Sr_0.8Ca_0.19AlSiN₃:0.01Eu²⁺ phosphors. Sr_0.8Ca_0.19AlSiN₃:0.01Eu²⁺ phosphors with various powder morphologies can be obtained through the addition of fluxes, which are conducive for phosphor formation. The powder morphologies of phosphors incorporated with NaF + SrF₂ were preferable to those of powders incorporated with other fluxes. This result indicated that the incorporation of NaF + SrF₂ into Sr_0.8Ca_0.19AlSiN₃:0.01Eu²⁺ yielded phosphors with high luminescent intensity and quantum efficiency, excellent thermal stability, narrow full widths at half-maximum (FWHM, 75.2 nm), uniform rod-like morphologies with large particle sizes (D₅₀ = 16.99 μm) and good particle dispersion. White LEDs with high CRIs were obtained by combining prepared phosphors (NaF + SrF₂ additive) with the commercial green-emitting phosphors Y₃(Al,Ga)₅O₁₂:Ce³⁺ and (Sr,Ba)₂SiO₄:Eu²⁺. White LEDs with Y₃(Al,Ga)₅O₁₂:Ce³⁺ and (Sr,Ba)₂SiO₄:Eu²⁺ phosphors had correlated colour temperatures (CCTs) of 3064 and 3023 K, respectively, and CRIs of 81.8 and 92.4, respectively. Therefore, NaF + SrF₂ can be used as a favourable flux for the production of Sr_0.8Ca_0.19AlSiN₃:0.01Eu²⁺.
