A Heat-Stimulated Luminous Fiber Using Heat-Sensitive Green TF-G Pigment.

ABSTRACT: In this study, we fabricated a heat-stimulated luminous fiber (HSLF) by wet spinning. The HSLF consists of Sr₂ZnSi₂O₇: Eu2+, Dy3+ (SZSO), Y₂O₂S: Eu3+, Mg2+, Ti4+ (YOS), and heat-sensitive green TF-G pigment (HSGP). SZSO and YOS serve as a source of luminescence to yield a long afterglow system. HSGP is a heat-stimulating agent which develops the link between luminescence and temperature for HSLF. The luminescence of the HSLF is dull below 30 °C, but vivid above 30 °C. The luminescence of HSLFs can be stimulated by low heat (human body temperature). Emission spectra were recorded at 20 °C and 30 °C to investigate the heat-stimulated luminescent performance of HSLFs. HSLF is a smart material which can discern the exciting light to change color because of the photo-thermal effect. This charac
