New Probe for Porcelain Glazes by Luminescence at Near-Infrared Excitation.

ABSTRACT: Raman spectroscopy is a powerful technique for a wide range of materials, including porcelain, and near-infrared excitation is often used to suppress a fluorescence background from a sample. When we measured the Raman spectra of porcelains at 785 nm excitation, we observed a strong broad band in a high-frequency region, and its origin was not clearly elucidated. In this study, we have measured the spectra of glazed porcelains at 532, 785, and 1064 nm excitation and demonstrated that the broad feature originates from luminescence around 880 nm and not from Raman scattering. We provide experimental evidence showing that the band originates from a thin layer of glaze. Since the band shape depends on the processing temperature, the luminescence spectra can be a nondestructive probe for studying the glass formation of a glaze.

Near-Infrared Quantum Cutting Long Persistent Luminescence.

Project description:By combining the unique features of the quantum cutting luminescence and long persistent luminescence, we design a new concept called "near-infrared quantum cutting long persistent luminescence (NQPL)", which makes it possible for us to obtain highly efficient (>100%) near-infrared long persistent luminescence in theory. Guided by the NQPL concept, we fabricate the first NQPL phosphor Ca2Ga2GeO7:Pr(3+),Yb(3+). It reveals that both the two-step energy transfer of model (I) and the one-step energy transfer of model (IV) occur in (3)P0 levels of Pr(3+). Although the actual efficiency is not sufficient for the practical application at this primitive stage, this discovery and the associated materials are still expected to have important implications for several fields such as crystalline Si solar cells and bio-medical imaging.

Modulating Near-Infrared Persistent Luminescence via Diverse Preparation Approaches.

Project description:Near-infrared (NIR) persistent luminescence (PersL) materials have attracted extensive attention due to their great promise in medical diagnostics, bio-imaging, night vision surveillance, multi-level anticounterfeiting, and information encryption. To achieve NIR PersL (micro/nano-) materials with the desired properties, a variety of synthesis methods have been employed, including solid-phase reaction and liquid-phase synthesis. Different synthesis methods have different but important effects on the micro/nano-structure, luminescence, and PersL properties of the materials. Moreover, the influence of various synthesis methods on the properties of NIR PersL materials determines the selection of preparation approaches for other new material systems. Taking the representative NIR PersL ZnGa2O4:Cr3+ material as an example, four synthesis procedures are applied, namely, high-temperature solid-state reaction (SSR), high-temperature molten salt method (MSM), hydrothermal method (HM), and microwave-assisted solid-state (MASS) method. The structural and luminescent properties of samples made by SSR, MSM, HM, and MASS are compared. Notably, it is revealed that the MASS method can create additional trapping energy levels, which is of great significance for emerging applications. This work demonstrates the different effects of synthesis methods on PersL performance and provides a good guideline for the rapid and reasonable selection of preparation methods for diverse applications.

Highly contorted superhelicene hits near-infrared circularly polarized luminescence.

Project description:Herein we describe a novel superhelicene structure consisting of three hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene (HBC) units arranged in a helical geometry and creating two carbo[5]helicenes and a carbo[7]helicene. The central HBC bears a tropone moiety, which induces a saddle-helix hybrid geometry into the 3D structure of the prepared nanographene. The introduction of multiple helicenes and the position of the tropone unit trigger near-infrared circularly polarized luminescence (NIR-CPL, up to 850 nm, |g lum| = 3.0 × 10-3) combined with good photoluminescence quantum yields (ϕ F = 0.43) and upconverted emission based on two-photon absorption (TPA). Compared to previously reported superhelicenes of similar size, higher quantum yields, CPL brightness, and red-shifted absorption and emission spectra are achieved. Besides, chiroptical properties of enantiopure thin films were evaluated. These findings place this novel superhelicene as the first NIR-CPL superhelicene ever reported and make it a promising candidate for use as a chiral luminescent material in optoelectronic devices.

Triggering near-infrared luminescence of vanadyl phthalocyanine by charging.

Project description:Probing electrofluorochromism (EFC) at the molecular level remains challenging. Here we study the strongly charge state-dependent photoluminescence of vanadyl phthalocyanine. We report vibrationally resolved absorption and laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) spectra of samples comprising both the mass-selected neutral molecule (VOPc⋅, a stable radical) and its cation produced upon electron ionization (EI) isolated in 5 K neon matrices. Ionization of the essentially non-emissive VOPc⋅ forms a high-spin diradical cation (VOPc+.. ) which shows profound photoluminescence (PL) in the NIR range. This unique phenomenon is potentially of interest for NIR-emitting electro-optic devices.

Photostimulated near-infrared persistent luminescence as a new optical read-out from Cr³?-doped LiGa?O?.

Project description:In conventional photostimulable storage phosphors, the optical information written by x-ray or ultraviolet irradiation is usually read out as a visible photostimulated luminescence (PSL) signal under the stimulation of a low-energy light with appropriate wavelength. Unlike the transient PSL, here we report a new optical read-out form, photostimulated persistent luminescence (PSPL) in the near-infrared (NIR), from a Cr(3+)-doped LiGa?O? NIR persistent phosphor exhibiting a super-long NIR persistent luminescence of more than 1,000 h. An intense PSPL signal peaking at 716 nm can be repeatedly obtained in a period of more than 1,000 h when an ultraviolet-light (250-360 nm) pre-irradiated LiGa?O?:Cr(3+) phosphor is repeatedly stimulated with a visible light or a NIR light. The LiGa?O?:Cr(3+) phosphor has promising applications in optical information storage, night-vision surveillance, and in vivo bio-imaging.

Nanoprobes with near-infrared persistent luminescence for in vivo imaging.

Project description:Fluorescence is increasingly used for in vivo imaging and has provided remarkable results. Yet this technique presents several limitations, especially due to tissue autofluorescence under external illumination and weak tissue penetration of low wavelength excitation light. We have developed an alternative optical imaging technique by using persistent luminescent nanoparticles suitable for small animal imaging. These nanoparticles can be excited before injection, and their in vivo distribution can be followed in real-time for more than 1 h without the need for any external illumination source. Chemical modification of the nanoparticles' surface led to lung or liver targeting or to long-lasting blood circulation. Tumor mass could also be identified on a mouse model.

Tailoring ultrabroadband near-infrared luminescence in Bi-doped germanosilicate glasses.

Project description:Bi-doped glasses and optical fibers are extensively studied since they present broadband optical amplification in the near-infrared region (NIR), in which the optical telecommunication industry greatly depends for the transmission of optical signals. There are many scientific challenges about the NIR luminescent emissions from Bi ions, such as understanding its origin and further improving the associated optical amplification capacity. In this work, Bi-doped germanosilicate glass compositions with ultrabroadband NIR luminescence were fabricated, in the range of 925-1630 nm, which covers O, E, S, C, and L-telecommunication bands. An in-depth analysis of the impact of modifying excitation wavelengths, Bi content, and GeO2/SiO2 concentration ratio in the glass matrix demonstrates the possibility of considerably manipulating the Bi NIR luminescence, in terms of tuning emission parameters such as bandwidth, up to ~ 490 nm, and luminescence intensity. Based on theoretical and experimental luminescence data retrieved from the fabricated glasses, we demonstrate that the origin of broadband luminescence under all the considered excitation wavelengths can be ascribed to optical transitions of Bi0 ions. Therefore, an energy level diagram for Bi0 is proposed. We anticipate that our findings can provide clarifications to the existing uncertainty in the origin of Bi NIR emission, which will be useful to fabricate efficient future optical fiber amplifiers.

Wavelength-Tuneable Near-Infrared Luminescence in Mixed Tin-Lead Halide Perovskites.

Project description:Near-infrared light-emitting diodes (NIR-LEDs) are widely used in various applications such as night-vision devices, optical communication, biological imaging and optical diagnosis. The current solution-processed high-efficiency perovskite NIR-LEDs are typically based on CsPbI3 and FAPbI3 with emission peaks being limited in the range of 700-800 nm. NIR-LEDs with longer emission wavelengths near to 900 nm can be prepared by replacing Pb with Sn. However, Sn-based perovskite LEDs usually exhibit a low efficiency owing to the high concentration of Sn-related defects and the rapid oxidation of Sn2+ to Sn4+, which further induces the device degradation. These problems can be solved by rationally adjusting the ratio between Pb content with Sn. Mixed Sn-Pb halide perovskites with a smaller bandgap and superior stability than pure Sn-based perovskites are promising candidates for manufacturing next-generation NIR emitters. In this study, we systematically investigated the optical properties of a family of hybrid Sn and Pb iodide compounds. The emission spectra of the mixed Sn-Pb halide perovskites were tuned by changing the Sn:Pb ratio. Consequently, the peak emission wavelength red-shifted from 710 nm to longer than 950 nm. The absorption and photoluminescence emission properties associated with different compositions were compared, and the results demonstrated the potential of MA- and FA-based mixed Sn-Pb halide perovskites for preparing low-cost and efficient NIR-LEDs. In addition, we clarified the influence of cations on the bandgap bowing effect and electronic properties of mixed Sn-Pb halide perovskites.

Near-Infrared Persistent Luminescence Nanoprobe for Ultrasensitive Image-Guided Tumor Resection.

Project description:Near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging poses significant superiority over traditional medical imaging for tumor resection, thus having attracted widely attention. However, for tiny tumor residues, it requires relative high sensitivity to determine. Here, based on persistent luminescence nanoparticles (PLNPs), an ultrasensitive nanoprobe with extraordinary tumor imaging result is developed to guide surgical removal. Persistent luminescence (PersL) is quenched in normal tissue by the outer layer of MnO2 , and is recovered due to the degradation of MnO2 in tumor microenvironment, significantly improving the sensitivity of tumor imaging. Combined with the absence of background fluorescence in imaging of PLNPs, ultrahigh sensitivity is achieved. In orthotopic breast cancer model, the intraoperative tumor-to-normal tissue (T/NT) signal ratio of the nanoprobe is 58.8, about 9 times that of downconversion nanoparticles. The T/NT ratio of residual tumor (<2 mm) remains 12.4, considerably high to distinguish tumor tissue from normal tissue. Besides, multiple-microtumor, 4T1 liver-implanted tumor and lung metastasis models are built to prove that this ultrasensitive nanoprobe is feasible to recognize tumor residues. Notably, PersL imaging takes only 1.5 min, appropriate to be applied for intraoperative imaging. Overall, an ultrasensitive and convenient imaging for recognizing residual tumor tissue is introduced, holding promise for complete surgical removal.
