Highly efficient up-conversion luminescence in Er3+/Yb3+ co-doped Na5Lu9F32 single crystals by vertical Bridgman method.

ABSTRACT: Er3+/Yb3+ co-doped Na5Lu9F32 single crystals with different concentrations of Yb3+ ions were prepared to investigate their phase structure, up-conversion (UC) properties and mechanism of UC luminescence by Bridgman method. Under 980 nm near-infrared (NIR) excitation, three sharp UC emission bands topping at green ~525 nm, ~548 nm and red ~669 nm were obtained in Er3+/Yb3+ doped Na5Lu9F32 single crystals which are attributing to the transitions of 2H11/2 → 4I15/2, 4S3/2 → 4I15/2 and 4F9/2 → 4I15/2, respectively. The quadratic dependence of pump power on UC emission indicated that two-photon process is in charge of the transition from excited state of Yb3+ ions to lower state of Er3+ ion in Na5Lu9F32 single crystals. The long-accepted mechanism for the production of red and green emissions through up-conversion (UC) under 980 nm excitation in Er3+/Yb3+ co-doped materials apply in the Na5Lu9F32 host was displayed. The enhancement of the red emission was observed due to a cross-relaxation (CR) process of the form: 4F7/2 + 4I11/2 → 4F9/2 + 4F9/2. Furthermore, an ideal yellowish green light performance could be achieved with 1.0 mol% Er3+ doped certain Yb3+ concentrations samples, and its external quantum efficiency approached to 6.80% under 5.5 Wcm-2 980 nm excitation which can be applied in developing UC displays for electro-optical devices.

Enhanced Power Conversion Efficiency of Perovskite Solar Cells with an Up-Conversion Material of Er3+-Yb3+-Li+ Tri-doped TiO2.

Project description:In this paper, Er3+-Yb3+-Li+ tri-doped TiO2 (UC-TiO2) was prepared by an addition of Li+ to Er3+-Yb3+ co-doped TiO2. The UC-TiO2 presented an enhanced up-conversion emission compared with Er3+-Yb3+ co-doped TiO2. The UC-TiO2 was applied to the perovskite solar cells. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of the solar cells without UC-TiO2 was 14.0%, while the PCE of the solar cells with UC-TiO2 was increased to 16.5%, which presented an increase of 19%. The results suggested that UC-TiO2 is an effective up-conversion material. And this study provided a route to expand the spectral absorption of perovskite solar cells from visible light to near-infrared using up-conversion materials.

Synthesis of Small Ce3+-Er3+-Yb3+ Tri-Doped BaLuF? Active-Core-Active-Shell-Active-Shell Nanoparticles with Strong Down Conversion Luminescence at 1.5 ?m.

Project description:Small fluoride nanoparticles (NPs) with strong down-conversion (DC) luminescence at 1.5 ?m are quite desirable for optical fiber communication systems. Nevertheless, a problem exists regarding how to synthesize small fluoride NPs with strong DC emission at 1.5 ?m. Herein, we propose an approach to improve 1.5 ?m emission of BaLuF?:Yb3+,Er3+ NPs by way of combining doping Ce3+ ions and coating multiple BaLuF?: Yb3+ active-shells. We prepared the BaLuF?:18%Yb3+,2%Er3+,2%Ce3+ NPs through a high-boiling solvent method. The effect of Ce3+ concentration on the DC luminescence was systematically investigated in the BaLuF?:Yb3+,Er3+ NPs. Under a 980 nm laser excitation, the intensities of 1.53 ?m emission of BaLuF?:18%Yb3+,2%Er3+,2%Ce3+ NPs was enhanced by 2.6 times comparing to that of BaLuF?:18%Yb3+,2%Er3+ NPs since the energy transfer between Er3+ and Ce3+ ions: Er3+:?I11/2 (Er3+) + ²F5/2 (Ce3+) ? ?I13/2 (Er3+) + ²F7/2 (Ce3+). Then, we synthesized BaLuF?:18%Yb3+,2%Er3+,2%Ce3+@BaLuF?:5%Yb3+@BaLuF?:5%Yb3+ core-active-shell-active-shell NPs via a layer-by-layer strategy. After coating two BaLuF?:Yb3+ active-shell around BaLuF?:Yb3+,Er3+,Ce3+ NPs, the intensities of the 1.53 ?m emission was enhanced by 44 times compared to that of BaLuF?:Yb3+,Er3+ core NPs, since the active-shells could be used to not only suppress surface quenching but also to transfer the pump light to the core region efficiently through Yb3+ ions inside the active-shells.

The Upconversion Luminescence of Er3+/Yb3+/Nd3+ Triply-Doped β-NaYF₄ Nanocrystals under 808-nm Excitation.

Project description:In this paper, Nd3+-Yb3+-Er3+-doped β-NaYF₄ nanocrystals with different Nd3+ concentrations are synthesized, and the luminescence properties of the upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) have been studied under 808-nm excitation for sensitive biological applications. The upconversion luminescence spectra of NaYF₄ nanoparticles with different dopants under 808-nm excitation proves that the Nd3+ ion can absorb the photons effectively, and the Yb3+ ion can play the role of an energy-transfer bridging ion between the Nd3+ ion and Er3+ ion. To investigate the effect of the Nd3+ ion, the decay curves of the ⁴S3/2 → ⁴I15/2 transition at 540 nm are measured and analyzed. The NaYF₄: 20% Yb3+, 2% Er3+, 0.5% Nd3+ nanocrystals have the highest emission intensity among all samples under 808-nm excitation. The UC (upconversion) mechanism under 808-nm excitation is discussed in terms of the experimental results.

Eu3+, Tb3+- and Er3+, Yb3+-Doped α-MoO3 Nanosheets for Optical Luminescent Thermometry.

Project description:Here we report a novel synthesis approach for the preparation of α-MoO3:Ln3+ materials employing a two-step synthesis. Additionally, in this work the α-MoO3:Ln3+ materials are reported as potential optical thermometers for the first time. In this synthesis approach, first MoS2 2D nanosheets were prepared, which were further heat treated to obtain α-MoO3. These materials were fully characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), thermogravimetry (TG) and differential thermal analysis (DTA), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and luminescence spectroscopy. Temperature-dependent luminescence measurements were carried out to determine the optical thermometric properties of two different types of α-MoO3:Ln3+ materials (Eu3+/Tb3+ downshifting and Er3+/Yb3+ upconversion luminescence systems). We demonstrate in this study that this class of material could be a potential candidate for temperature-sensing applications.

Sensitized Yb3+ Luminescence in CsPbCl3 Film for Highly Efficient Near-Infrared Light-Emitting Diodes.

Project description:Near-infrared (NIR) light emitting diodes (LEDs) with the emission wavelength over 900 nm are useful in a wide range of optical applications. Narrow bandgap NIR emitters have been widely investigated using organic compounds and colloidal quantum dots. However, intrinsically low charge mobility and luminescence efficiency of these materials limit improvement of the external quantum efficiency (EQE) of NIR LEDs, which is far from practical applications. Herein, a highly efficient NIR LED is demonstrated, which is based on an energy transfer from wide bandgap all inorganic perovskite (CsPbCl3) to ytterbium ions (Yb3+) as an NIR emitter doped in the perovskite crystalline film. High mobility of electrically excited carriers in the perovskite crystalline film provides a long carrier diffusion and enhances radiative recombination of an emission center due to minimized charge trapping losses, resulting in high EQE value in LEDs. The NIR emission of Yb3+ at around 1000 nm is found to be sensitized by CsPbCl3 thin film with a photoluminescence quantum yield over 60%. The LED based on Yb3+-doped CsPbCl3 film exhibits a high EQE of 5.9% with a peak wavelength of 984 nm, achieved by high carrier transporting ability and effective sensitized emission property in the solid-film structure.

Dynamically Tuning the Up-conversion Luminescence of Er(3+)/Yb(3+) Co-doped Sodium Niobate Nano-crystals through Magnetic Field.

Project description:In this work, we show here that the up-conversion luminescence of NaNbO3:Er(3+)/Yb(3+) nano-materials can be modulated by magnetic field and a enhancement of up-conversion intensities by a factor of about 2 for Er(3+):(4)S3/2 → (4)I15/2 obtained at 30 T and about 5.4 for Er(3+):(4)F9/2 → (4)I15/2 obtained at 20 T. The increased up-conversion luminescence are mainly interpreted in terms of the enhanced non-radiation transition from (4)I11/2 to (4)I13/2 of Er(3+) ions and the spin-orbital coupling (that is "mixing" effect) in crystal field by an external magnetic field. Meanwhile, we observed continuously spectra broadening with growing the magnetic field intensity, which is ascribed to the "mixing" effect induced by magnetic field and the difference of g factor of sub-bands. This bi-functional material with controllable optical-magnetic interactions has various potential applications, such as optical detection of magnetic field, etc.

Investigation on the Luminescence Properties of InMO4 (M = V5+, Nb5+, Ta5+) Crystals Doped with Tb3+ or Yb3+ Rare Earth Ions.

Project description:We explore the potential of Tb- and Yb-doped InVO4, InTaO4, and InNbO4 for applications as phosphors for light-emitting sources. Doping below 0.2% barely change the crystal structure and Raman spectrum but provide optical excitation and emission properties in the visible and near-infrared (NIR) spectral regions. From optical measurements, the energy of the first/second direct band gaps was determined to be 3.7/4.1 eV in InVO4, 4.7/5.3 in InNbO4, and 5.6/6.1 eV in InTaO4. In the last two cases, these band gaps are larger than the fundamental band gap (being indirect gap materials), while for InVO4, a direct band gap semiconductor, the fundamental band gap is at 3.7 eV. As a consequence, this material shows a strong self-activated photoluminescence centered at 2.2 eV. The other two materials have a weak self-activated signal at 2.2 and 2.9 eV. We provide an explanation for the origin of these signals taking into account the analysis of the polyhedral coordination around the pentavalent cations (V, Nb, and Ta). Finally, the characteristic green (5D4 → 7F J ) and NIR (2F5/2 → 2F7/2) emissions of Tb3+ and Yb3+ have been analyzed and explained.

Simultaneous morphology manipulation and upconversion luminescence enhancement of ?-NaYF4:Yb3+/Er3+ microcrystals by simply tuning the KF dosage.

Project description:A strategy has been adopted for simultaneous morphology manipulation and upconversion luminescence enhancement of ?-NaYF4:Yb(3+)/Er(3+) microcrystals by simply tuning the KF dosage. X-ray power diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and photoluminescence spectra (PL) were used to characterize the samples. The influence of molar ratio of KF to Y(3+) on the crystal phase and morphology has been systematically investigated and discussed. It is found that the molar ratio of KF to Y(3+) can strongly control the morphology of the as-synthesized ?-NaYF4 samples because of the different capping effect of F(-) ions on the different crystal faces. The possible formation mechanism has been proposed on the basis of a series of time-dependent experiments. More importantly, the upconversion luminescence of ?-NaYF4:Yb(3+)/Er(3+) was greatly enhanced by increasing the molar ratio of KF to RE(3+) (RE = Y, Yb, Er), which is attributed to the distortion of local crystal field symmetry around lanthanide ions through K(+) ions doping. This synthetic methodology is expected to provide a new strategy for simultaneous morphology control and remarkable upconversion luminescence enhancement of yttrium fluorides, which may be applicable for other rare earth fluorides.
