In order to promote the afterglow properties of red-emitting phosphors, we prepared it by means of solid-state reaction, and the effect of manufacturing elements including H3BO3 and environmental factor of calcining temperature, type of flux on its luminescence property were investigated through evaluating their afterglow properties. The results showed that with the concentration of Nd3＋ increasing, the amounts of H3BO3 doping and calcining temperature, the afterglow time and initial brightness of the rare-earth silicate phosphor increased and then decreased gradually. The afterglow properties of different flux concentration were different from one to another as： H3BO3〉Na＋〉K＋〉No flux.展开更多

The XRD pattem shows the host phase of CaAl2O4 is produced and no impurity phase appears. The peak wavelength of the phosphor does not vary with La^3＋ and Dy^3＋ doping. It implies that the crystal field, which affects the 5d electron states of Eu^2＋, is not changed dramatically after doping of La^3＋ and Dy^3＋. The TL spectra indicate that the phosphor doped with La^3＋ or Dy^3＋ produces different depths of trap energy level. In the mechanism of long afterglow luminescence, it is considered that La^3＋ or Dy^3＋ works as trap energy level. The decay time lies on the number of electrons in the trap energy level and the rate of the electrons returning to the excitation level.展开更多

The synthesized samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction. The excitation spectrum, emission spectrum and long decay curve were measured and analyzed. XRD pattern indicates that phosphor is with Sr2MgSi2O7 crystal structure. The wide range of excitation wavelength indicates that luminescent material can be excited by light from ultraviolet ray to visible light. The main peak of emission spectrum is located at 466 nm. Sample excited by visible light can emit bright blue light, and the afterglow time lasts more than 8 h.展开更多

Herein,we report a facile method to prepare green and NIR dual-mode afterglow of carbon dots(CDs) through in situ embedding o-CDs(being prepared from o-phenylenediamine) into cyanuric acid(CA) matrix(named o-CDs@CA). Further studies reveal that the green and NIR afterglows of o-CDs@CA originate from thermal activated delayed fluorescence(TADF) and room temperature phosphorescence(RTP) of o-CDs,respectively. In addition,the formation of covalent bonds between o-CDs and CA,and the presence of multiple fixation and rigid e ects to the triplet states of o-CDs are confirmed to be critical for activating the observed dual-mode afterglow. Due to the shorter lifetime and insensitiveness to human vision of the NIR RTP of o-CDs@CA,it is completely covered by the green TADF during directly observing. The NIR RTP signal,however,can be readily captured if an optical filter(cut-o wavelength of 600 nm) being used. By utilizing these unique features,the applications of o-CDs@CA in anti-counterfeiting and information encryption have been demonstrated with great confidentiality. Finally,the as-developed method was confirmed to be applicable to many other kinds of CDs for achieving or enhancing their afterglow performances.展开更多

The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results of XRD show that the single crystalline phase is α-SrAl_2O_4. According to the observation of SEM, the particles of the samples are needle-like. Compared with the samples synthesized by solid state reaction, the grain size of the sol-gel method is to nanometer grade. A clear blue shift occurs in the excitation and emission spectra. The blue shift in nanocrystalline SrAl_2O_4∶Eu, Dy phosphor can be attributed to the quantum-size-effect of the luminescent particles.展开更多

The photoluminescence spectra, decay curves, thermoluminescent spectra and chromaticity coordinate curves were investigated. The results show that the luminescence intensity of Y1.94-xMgxO2S :0.06Ti (0≤x≤0. 10) phosphors decrease gradually with increasing Mg2+ ion content, and the shape of luminescence spectra and chromaticity coordinate change as well. Furthermore, two thermoluminescent peaks in single Ti-doped Y2O2S sample are found at 91.8 and 221.5℃, respectively. Nevertheless, significant different spectra were found for the Mg, Ti co-doped Y2O2S samples that three thermoluminescence peaks appear at 52.3, 141.7 and 226.8℃, respectively. These results indicate that the co-doped Mg ion changes the inherent trap depth of single Ti-doped Y2O2S: Ti phosphor, and induces simultaneously a new trap level in the Y1.94-xMgxO2S:0.06Ti phosphor. Based on the analysis of thermoluminescent spectra, photolumi-nescent spectra, decay curve and crystal structure defect, it was proposed that the varied structure defect and introduced new trap level by the doped Mg2+ ions should be responsible for reducing luminescence intensity and varying color in the Y1.94-x Mgx O2S : 0.06Ti phosphor.展开更多

XRD patterns of samples indicate that phosphors CaAl2O4：Eu^2＋, Dy^3＋ and SrAl2O4 ： Eu^2＋, Dy^3＋ are with monoelinie crystal structure and phosphor BaAl2O4：Eu^2＋ , Dy^3＋ is with hexagonal crystal structure.

The afterglow decay tendency of phosphors can he summarized as three processes： initial rapid decay, intermediate transitional decay and very long slow decay. Afterglow decay curves coincide with formula I = At^ - n, and the sequence of afterglow intensity and time is Sr 〉 Ca 〉 Ba.展开更多

X-ray diffraction, photoluminescence spectroscopy and thermally stimulated spectrometry were used to investigate the effects of Nb5＋ content on the crystal characteristics and luminescent properties of Ca0.8Zn0.2Ti1-xNbxO3：Pr3＋ phosphors. The results showed that the addition of a small quantity of Nb5＋ had negligible effect on the crystal characteristics of Ca0.8Zn0.2Ti1-xNbxO3：Pr3＋, but it could change the trapping parameters （the depth of trap, frequency factors and the concentration of trapped charges at t=0） of Ca0.8Zn0.2Ti1-xNbxO3：Pr3＋ phosphors, and then led to the enhance-ment of red fluorescence and phosphorescence at 612 nm originating from 1D2→3H4 transition of Pr3＋. Both of the red fluorescence intensity and afterglow time reached the largest values in the sample of Ca0.8Zn0.2Ti1-xNbxO3：Pr3＋ with x=0.05. The afterglow time of Ca0.8Zn0.2Ti0.95Nb0.05O3：Pr3＋ phosphors lasted for over 24 min （≥1 mcd/m2） when the excited source was cut off.展开更多

Their excitation and emission spectra at different excitation and afterglow characteristics were analyzed after the excitation power was taken off. The effects of Eu 2+ , Dy 3+ , Nd 3+ mole concentrations on phosphorescence characteristics were also discussed. It is crucial to have trapping levels located at a suitable depth related to the thermal release rate at room temperature. The incorporation of Nd 3+ ions as an auxiliary activator into the SrAl 2O 4∶Eu 2+ system causes very intense and long phosphorescence. The response time of SrAl 2O 4∶Eu 2+ , Dy 3+ phosphors is quicker than that of SrAl 2O 4∶Eu 2+ , Nd 3+ . Phosphorescence characteristics of SrAl 2O 4∶Eu 2+, Nd 3+ is much better than those of SrAl 2O 4∶Eu 2+ , Dy 3+ . The integrate area of the excitation spectrum of SrAl 2O 4∶Eu 2+ , Nd 3+ phosphor is larger than that of SrAl 2O 4∶Eu 2+ , Dy 3+ phosphor within the range of 250～360 nm. For phosphorescence characteristics to the system of SrAl 2O 4∶Eu 2+ , Nd 3+ phosphor, the optimum concentration of Nd 3+ trivalent rare earth ions is 0.05 mol.展开更多

The SrAl2O4： Eu^2＋, Dy^3＋ phosphors were initially prepared by the solid reaction method. Three kinds of glass frits were prepared to match the SrAl2O4： Eu^2＋, Dy^3＋ phosphors. Effects of the compositions of the glass frits, the ratios of the phosphors to the frits us well us the firing temperature and firing times on the properties of the samples were discussed. XRD analysis indicated the samples exhibited the typical diffraction peaks of SrAlwO4： Eu^2＋, Dy^3＋. The emission spectra of the samples showed broad bands peaking at 510nm.The excitation spectra of the samples showed broad bands ranging from 300 to 480hm. These are believed due to the 5d4f-4f transitions of Eu^2＋ in the SrAl2O4： Eu^2＋, Dy^3＋ phosphors. The afterglow luminescence of the samples excited by a 40W fluorescence lamp for 30min can be observed in the dark for more lOh with the naked eyes. It can find wide applications in many fields.展开更多

文摘Organic afterglow materials hold significant potential for applications in information storage,anticounterfeiting,and biological imaging.However,studies on afterglow materials capable of ultra-wide range excitation and emission simultaneously are limited.To enhance the practicality of strong emission single-component organic afterglow systems,overcoming the constraints of crystalline or other rigid environments is essential.We have developed solid-state dual-persistent thermally activated delayed fluorescence(TADF)and room temperature phosphorescence(RTP)emissions spanning yellow to red under visible light excitation,utilizing a single-molecule terminal group regulation strategy.The RTP lifetime extends from 4.19 ms to 399.70 ms.These afterglow materials exhibit an ultra-wide absorption range from 200 nm to 800 nm,rendering them capable of being excited by both sunlight simulator and nearinfrared radiation.The upconversion phosphorescence lifetime under 808 nm excitation reaches 13.72μs.The double persistent emission of these compounds is temperature-sensitive.Moreover,following grinding or heat treatment,accompanied by extensive afterglow color conversion due to planarization of excited state conformations and additional efficient kRIsc generation.In addition,the amorphous state post melt annealing facilitates the afterglow transition from yellow to green.Crucially,these compounds also maintain stable ultra-long afterglow emission in aqueous and acid-base environments.Overall,we have successfully developed a series of single-component intelligent luminescent materials that demonstrate significant benefits,including dual TADF and RTP emissions,adjustable afterglow lifetimes,a broad range of excitation and emission wavelengths,multi-modal luminescence not restricted to crystalline states,and robust afterglow performance in challenging environments,setting the stage for the practical deployment of afterglow materials in engineering applications,the upconversion afterglow emission also holds promising potential for applications in the field of biological imaging.

文摘In this paper,we developed low dose X-ray induced long afterglow phosphor Ca_(2)P_(2)O_(7):Pr^(3+),which shows excellent afterglow luminescence from ultraviolet C(UVC)to red region.The photoluminescent results show that under 445.7 nm excitation,Ca_(1.995)P_(2)O_(7):0.5%Pr3+displays red emissions peaked at 598.3 and651.9 nm,corresponding to1D2-3H4and3P0-3F2transitions of Pr^(3+),respectively.Due to its pure red emission(CIE coordinates(0.59101,0.39926)),Ca_(1.995)P_(2)O_(7):0.5%Pr^(3+)can be regarded as a potential LED red phosphor.More importantly,Ca_(2)P_(2)O_(7):Pr^(3+)shows long afterglow luminescence from UVC to red region,which consists of four co ntinuous emissions with similar intensity including 260,359,466 and 598.3 nm.Since these afterglow continuous emissions are fitted to the absorption of most photodynamic therapy(PDT)agents,Ca_(2)P_(2)O_(7):Pr^(3+)can be regarded as excellent PDT agents.Furthermo re,30 s X-ray irradiation can induce 5400 s decay of Ca_(1.997)P_(2)O_(7):0.3%Pr^(3+),and its afterglow emission intensity still reaches 5×10^(4)cps after 5400 s decay.Even only 5 s X-ray irradiation also can produce 4.75×10^(4)cps afterglow emis sion after10 s decay.In addition,the repeat 980 nm laser irradiations can induce co ntinuous strong photo-stimulated(PSL)luminescent peaks,which can be utilized to conduct high efficiency PDT without another X-ray irradiation.The thermoluminesce nce results reveal that the existence of shallow(0.89 eV)and deep traps are responsible for the excellent X-ray induced long afterglow and PSL luminescence.All these results suggest that Ca_(2)P2O7:Pr^(3+)possesses great potential to be regarded as high efficiency PDT agents.

文摘Multiband afterglow observations of gamma-ray bursts(GRBs)are important for studying the central engine.GRB 201223A is a GRB with prompt optical detection by GWAC.Here we report on the early optical afterglow of GRB 201223A detected by NEXT(only 2.8 minutes after the Swift/BAT trigger),which smoothly connects the prompt optical emission and the afterglow phase.Utilizing Amati diagrams and considering the detection of afterglow emission in the Swift u-band,we suggest a redshift range of 0.26–1.85.Based on our optical data and combined with early optical observation from GWAC and early X-ray data from Swift/XRT,a multiband fitting is performed using PyFRS,and we obtain the best afterglow parameters(assuming a redshift of z=1.0):=5.01+10/_(1.70)^(1.91)×^(54)erg,G=-426.58+_(138.18)/^(148.86),θj=-25.98+_(-10.54)^/(9.67)deg,=-n0=0.30+_(-0.26)^(+3.78)cm^(−3),=-p2.32+_(-0.01)/^(+0.01),εe=-3.31+_(-0.86)/^(+1.59)×10^(-5),εB=-3.47+_(-2.62)/^(+4.12)×10^(-1).The late-time X-ray shows a re-brightening,indicating late-time central engine activities.After comparing the leading two central engine models,i.e.,magnetar model and hyperaccreting black hole model,we find that the fallback accretion onto a newborn black hole provides a better explanation for the X-ray re-brightening with fallback accretion rate Mp≈2.76×10^(-9)M⊙s^(-1)and the total fallback accreted mass Mfb≈1.41×10^(−6)M⊙.

文摘The low-dose X-ray induced long afterglow near infrared(NIR)luminescence from Cr^(3+)doped Zn_(1-x)Cd_(x)Ga_(2)O_(4)spinel solid solutions was investigated.The structure analysis shows the good formation of Zn_(1-x)Cd_(x)Ga_(2)O_(4)spinel solid solutions,which possesses a cubic spinel structure with Fd3m space group.The formation of Zn_(1-x)Cd_(x)Ga_(2)O_(4)spinel solid solutions induces the obvious increase of long afterglow near infrared luminescence excited by low-dose X-ray,When the content of doped Cd^(2+)reaches 0.1,the low-dose X-ray induced long afterglow NIR luminescence is the maximum.More importantly,only 5 s Xray irradiation can induce more than 6 h NIR afterglow emission,of which the afterglow luminescent intensity is still 5 times stronger than the background intensity after 6 h.The thermoluminescent results show that under the 5 s exposure of X-ray,the trap density of Zn_(0.9)Cd_(0.1)Ga_(2)O_(4):Cr^(3+)is much higher than that of ZnGa_(2)O_(4):Cr^(3+).The replacement of Cd^(2+)ions with large radius at Zn^(2+)sites causes the increase of de fects and dislocations,which results in the obvious increase of trap co ncentrations.And the addition of high-z number elements Cd^(2+)would enhance the X-ray absorption of the solid solutions,which thus can be easily excited by low-dose X-ray.Zn_(0.9)Cd_(0.1)Ga_(2)O_(4):1%Cr^(3+)solid solution is a potential candidate of lowdose X-ray induced long afterglow luminescent materials.

文摘A yellow emitting long afterglow luminescence material SrSc_(2)O_(4):Pr^(3+)was successfully prepared by solid state reaction method.SrSc_(2)O_(4):Pr^(3+)phosphor shows a long afterglow luminescence peak at about 495,545,621,630 and 657 nm,respectively,corresponding to the f–f transitions of Pr^(3+).The afterglow chromaticity coordinates of SrSc_(2)O_(4):1 at%Pr^(3+)were calculated to be(0.35,0.41),indicating that the afterglow emission is close to the light of yellow region.And,the afterglow luminescence of the optimal sample doped by 1 at%Pr^(3+)can persist for over 3 h.The thermoluminescence results suggest that there are three types of traps with depth of 0.61,0.69 and 0.78 eV exiting for all the samples,which are produced by the addition of Pr^(3+)ions.The trap density of SrSc_(2)O_(4):1 at%Pr^(3+)is the maximum when the incorporation of Pr^(3+)ions reaches 1 at%,which thus results in the longest afterglow luminescence.All the results indicate that SrSc_(2)O_(4):Pr^(3+)can be a potential candidate of novel long afterglow phosphors.

文摘With stable physical properties, the rare-earth silicate phosphor of MgSiO3：Mn2＋,Nd3＋ is one of the suitable luminescent materials used in preparing functional fibers. In order to promote the afterglow properties of red-emitting phosphors, we prepared it by means of solid-state reaction, and the effect of manufacturing elements including H3BO3 and environmental factor of calcining temperature, type of flux on its luminescence property were investigated through evaluating their afterglow properties. The results showed that with the concentration of Nd3＋ increasing, the amounts of H3BO3 doping and calcining temperature, the afterglow time and initial brightness of the rare-earth silicate phosphor increased and then decreased gradually. The afterglow properties of different flux concentration were different from one to another as： H3BO3〉Na＋〉K＋〉No flux.

文摘The long afterglow phosphor CaAl2O4： Eu^2＋, Nd^3＋ was prepared by the high temperature solid-state reaction method, and the influence of La^3＋ and Dy^3＋ on the properties of the long afterglow phosphor was studied by X-ray diffiaction （XRD）, photoluminescence （PL）, and thermoluminescence （TL）. The XRD pattem shows the host phase of CaAl2O4 is produced and no impurity phase appears. The peak wavelength of the phosphor does not vary with La^3＋ and Dy^3＋ doping. It implies that the crystal field, which affects the 5d electron states of Eu^2＋, is not changed dramatically after doping of La^3＋ and Dy^3＋. The TL spectra indicate that the phosphor doped with La^3＋ or Dy^3＋ produces different depths of trap energy level. In the mechanism of long afterglow luminescence, it is considered that La^3＋ or Dy^3＋ works as trap energy level. The decay time lies on the number of electrons in the trap energy level and the rate of the electrons returning to the excitation level.
文摘Long afterglow photoluminescent materials Sr2MgSi2O7 doped with Eu2+, Dy3+ were prepared by sol-gel method. The synthesized samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction. The excitation spectrum, emission spectrum and long decay curve were measured and analyzed. XRD pattern indicates that phosphor is with Sr2MgSi2O7 crystal structure. The wide range of excitation wavelength indicates that luminescent material can be excited by light from ultraviolet ray to visible light. The main peak of emission spectrum is located at 466 nm. Sample excited by visible light can emit bright blue light, and the afterglow time lasts more than 8 h.

文摘Near-infrared(NIR),particularly NIR-containing dual-/multimode afterglow,is very attractive in many fields of application,but it is still a great challenge to achieve such property of materials. Herein,we report a facile method to prepare green and NIR dual-mode afterglow of carbon dots(CDs) through in situ embedding o-CDs(being prepared from o-phenylenediamine) into cyanuric acid(CA) matrix(named o-CDs@CA). Further studies reveal that the green and NIR afterglows of o-CDs@CA originate from thermal activated delayed fluorescence(TADF) and room temperature phosphorescence(RTP) of o-CDs,respectively. In addition,the formation of covalent bonds between o-CDs and CA,and the presence of multiple fixation and rigid e ects to the triplet states of o-CDs are confirmed to be critical for activating the observed dual-mode afterglow. Due to the shorter lifetime and insensitiveness to human vision of the NIR RTP of o-CDs@CA,it is completely covered by the green TADF during directly observing. The NIR RTP signal,however,can be readily captured if an optical filter(cut-o wavelength of 600 nm) being used. By utilizing these unique features,the applications of o-CDs@CA in anti-counterfeiting and information encryption have been demonstrated with great confidentiality. Finally,the as-developed method was confirmed to be applicable to many other kinds of CDs for achieving or enhancing their afterglow performances.
文摘Eu 2+, Dy 3+ co-doped nanocrystalline strontium aluminate phosphor powders with brightness and long afterglow were synthesized by the sol-gel method at 1200 ℃ for 2 h. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results of XRD show that the single crystalline phase is α-SrAl_2O_4. According to the observation of SEM, the particles of the samples are needle-like. Compared with the samples synthesized by solid state reaction, the grain size of the sol-gel method is to nanometer grade. A clear blue shift occurs in the excitation and emission spectra. The blue shift in nanocrystalline SrAl_2O_4∶Eu, Dy phosphor can be attributed to the quantum-size-effect of the luminescent particles.

文摘Y1.94-xMgxO2S:0.06Ti (0≤x≤0.10) phosphors with long afterglow were synthesized by solid state reaction route. The photoluminescence spectra, decay curves, thermoluminescent spectra and chromaticity coordinate curves were investigated. The results show that the luminescence intensity of Y1.94-xMgxO2S :0.06Ti (0≤x≤0. 10) phosphors decrease gradually with increasing Mg2+ ion content, and the shape of luminescence spectra and chromaticity coordinate change as well. Furthermore, two thermoluminescent peaks in single Ti-doped Y2O2S sample are found at 91.8 and 221.5℃, respectively. Nevertheless, significant different spectra were found for the Mg, Ti co-doped Y2O2S samples that three thermoluminescence peaks appear at 52.3, 141.7 and 226.8℃, respectively. These results indicate that the co-doped Mg ion changes the inherent trap depth of single Ti-doped Y2O2S: Ti phosphor, and induces simultaneously a new trap level in the Y1.94-xMgxO2S:0.06Ti phosphor. Based on the analysis of thermoluminescent spectra, photolumi-nescent spectra, decay curve and crystal structure defect, it was proposed that the varied structure defect and introduced new trap level by the doped Mg2+ ions should be responsible for reducing luminescence intensity and varying color in the Y1.94-x Mgx O2S : 0.06Ti phosphor.

文摘High-sensitivity detection of porphyrin in blood is very important for the early diagnosis and treatment of porphyria.Based on the advantages of longer luminescence lifetime and lower background interference,organic afterglow molecular porphyrin detection probes were developed,but these probes show poor water solubility and insufficient luminescence intensity.Herein,we present an afterglow nanoprobe(Eu-NP)for porphyria detection in whole blood.The luminescent substance(europium complex)and the organic vinyl co mpound reacted with singlet oxygen(^(1)O_(2))were selected for encapsulation in polystyrene spheres.Eu-NP can respond to^(1)O_(2)produced by porphyrins,and the detection signals can be obtained by the emission of the afterglow Eu^(3+)-emissive nanosensor.Eu-NP can achieve high-sensitivity detection of porphyrin,and the lowest detection limit reaches 0.29μmol/L.The porphyrin detection in whole blood samples is consistent with clinical diagnosis results.Compared with the organic afterglow molecule,the Eu-NPs constructed in this work show a higher signal-to-noise ratio and sensitivity of porphyria detection.
文摘Long afterglow phosphors MAl2O4：Eu^2＋ , Dy^3＋ （M = Ca, Sr, Ba） were synthesized by microemulsion method, and their crystal structure and luminescent properties were compared and investigated. XRD patterns of samples indicate that phosphors CaAl2O4：Eu^2＋, Dy^3＋ and SrAl2O4 ： Eu^2＋, Dy^3＋ are with monoelinie crystal structure and phosphor BaAl2O4：Eu^2＋ , Dy^3＋ is with hexagonal crystal structure. The wide range of excitation spectrum of phosphors MAl2O4： Eu^2 ＋ , Dy^3＋ （M = Ca,Sr, Ba） indicates that the luminescent materials can he excited by light from ultraviolet ray to visible light and the maximum emission wavelength of phosphors MAl2O4：Eu^2＋ , Dy^3＋ （M = Ca, Sr, Ba） is found mainly at λem of 440 nm （M = Ca）, 520 nm （M = Sr） and 496 nm （M = Ba） respectively, the corresponding colors of emission light are blue, green and eyna-green respectively. The afterglow decay tendency of phosphors can he summarized as three processes： initial rapid decay, intermediate transitional decay and very long slow decay. Afterglow decay curves coincide with formula I = At^ - n, and the sequence of afterglow intensity and time is Sr 〉 Ca 〉 Ba.

文摘Nb5＋ doped Ca0.8Zn0.2TiO3：Pr3＋ red long afterglow phosphors were synthesized by solid-state reaction methods. X-ray diffraction, photoluminescence spectroscopy and thermally stimulated spectrometry were used to investigate the effects of Nb5＋ content on the crystal characteristics and luminescent properties of Ca0.8Zn0.2Ti1-xNbxO3：Pr3＋ phosphors. The results showed that the addition of a small quantity of Nb5＋ had negligible effect on the crystal characteristics of Ca0.8Zn0.2Ti1-xNbxO3：Pr3＋, but it could change the trapping parameters （the depth of trap, frequency factors and the concentration of trapped charges at t=0） of Ca0.8Zn0.2Ti1-xNbxO3：Pr3＋ phosphors, and then led to the enhance-ment of red fluorescence and phosphorescence at 612 nm originating from 1D2→3H4 transition of Pr3＋. Both of the red fluorescence intensity and afterglow time reached the largest values in the sample of Ca0.8Zn0.2Ti1-xNbxO3：Pr3＋ with x=0.05. The afterglow time of Ca0.8Zn0.2Ti0.95Nb0.05O3：Pr3＋ phosphors lasted for over 24 min （≥1 mcd/m2） when the excited source was cut off.

文摘A ternary luminous fiber with white light emitting was prepared. The fiber combined emission from Sr＋2ZnSi_2O_7：Eu^2＋,Dy3, SrAl_2O_4：Eu^2＋,Dy^3＋ and Rhodamine B in the ternary system. According to fluorescence resonance energy transfer（FRET）, Rhodamine B was applied to generate red emission. A novel FRET system among Sr_2ZnS i_2O_7：Eu^2＋,Dy^3＋, SrAl_2O_4：Eu^2＋,Dy^3＋ and Rhodamine B was introduced. The anticipated luminescence properties could be realized precisely by adjusting the ratio. The summaries of the main test results such as X-ray diffraction, CIE chromaticity diagram and fluorescence spectrophotometer were given, and an afterglow brightness tester was used as a microcomputer thermo-luminescent dosimeter. The brief outlines about some phenomena aspects and detailed physical descriptions as well as manuals were available. From the XRD analysis the result suggested that the lattice structure was not destroyed when milling and spinning. The sample of 6：4：0.1 with white light emitting showed good physical, mechanical and luminous performance.
文摘The SrAl 2O 4∶Eu 2+ , Nd 3+ and SrAl 2O 4∶Eu 2+ , Dy 3+ long afterglow phosphor were synthesized. Their excitation and emission spectra at different excitation and afterglow characteristics were analyzed after the excitation power was taken off. The effects of Eu 2+ , Dy 3+ , Nd 3+ mole concentrations on phosphorescence characteristics were also discussed. It is crucial to have trapping levels located at a suitable depth related to the thermal release rate at room temperature. The incorporation of Nd 3+ ions as an auxiliary activator into the SrAl 2O 4∶Eu 2+ system causes very intense and long phosphorescence. The response time of SrAl 2O 4∶Eu 2+ , Dy 3+ phosphors is quicker than that of SrAl 2O 4∶Eu 2+ , Nd 3+ . Phosphorescence characteristics of SrAl 2O 4∶Eu 2+, Nd 3+ is much better than those of SrAl 2O 4∶Eu 2+ , Dy 3+ . The integrate area of the excitation spectrum of SrAl 2O 4∶Eu 2+ , Nd 3+ phosphor is larger than that of SrAl 2O 4∶Eu 2+ , Dy 3+ phosphor within the range of 250～360 nm. For phosphorescence characteristics to the system of SrAl 2O 4∶Eu 2+ , Nd 3+ phosphor, the optimum concentration of Nd 3+ trivalent rare earth ions is 0.05 mol.

文摘Bright long afterglow phosphorescence glasses were prepared by using SrAl2O4： Eu^2＋, Dy^3＋ phosphors and suitable glass frits together. The SrAl2O4： Eu^2＋, Dy^3＋ phosphors were initially prepared by the solid reaction method. Three kinds of glass frits were prepared to match the SrAl2O4： Eu^2＋, Dy^3＋ phosphors. Effects of the compositions of the glass frits, the ratios of the phosphors to the frits us well us the firing temperature and firing times on the properties of the samples were discussed. XRD analysis indicated the samples exhibited the typical diffraction peaks of SrAlwO4： Eu^2＋, Dy^3＋. The emission spectra of the samples showed broad bands peaking at 510nm.The excitation spectra of the samples showed broad bands ranging from 300 to 480hm. These are believed due to the 5d4f-4f transitions of Eu^2＋ in the SrAl2O4： Eu^2＋, Dy^3＋ phosphors. The afterglow luminescence of the samples excited by a 40W fluorescence lamp for 30min can be observed in the dark for more lOh with the naked eyes. It can find wide applications in many fields.
