Upconversion as well as downconversion luminescence studies were performed by using near infrared(980 nm) and ultraviolet(380 nm) excitations. Energy level diagram, pump power dependence and colour coordinate study were utilized to describe the multicolor upconversion emission properties. Under single 980 nm diode laser excitation the dual mode sensing behaviour is realized via Stark sublevels and thermally coupled energy levels of the Tm3+ and Erions in the prepared tri-doped phosphors. A comparative fluorescence intensity ratio analysis for integrated emission intensities arising from the Stark sublevels {~1 G4(a)) and ~1 G4(b))} and thermally coupled energy levels {~2 Hand 4 S3/2} of the Tm3+ and Er3+ ions, respectively was carried out in the prepared tri-doped BaMoOphosphors. The maximum sensitivity for thermally coupled energy levels of the Er3+ and Stark sublevels of the Tm3+ ion was reported. The developed phosphors could be useful in the display devices and optical thermo metric applications.展开更多

X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy observations reveal that Li~＋ ion co-doping can change the lattice parameter of La_2O_3 host and increase the particle size of the samples. The optical investigation shows that co-doping of Li~＋ ions can enhance the upconversion emission of Er^（3＋） ions in La_2O_3 matrix effectively. Most importantly, the temperature sensing sensitivity of the samples is found to be dependent on Li~＋ co-doping concentration,when the emission intensity ratio of the（~2H_（11/2）→~4 I_（15/2）） and（~4 S_（3/2）→~4 I_（15/2）） transitions of Er^（3＋） is chosen as the thermometric index. Both of the optimum upconversion luminescence and temperature sensing sensitivity are obtained for 7 mol% Li~＋ co-doped sample. When the Li~＋ concentration is beyond 7 mol%,both the quenching in upconversion intensity and the degradation of temperature sensitivity are observed, which may be due to the serious distortion in local crystal field around Er^（3＋） ions caused by the excess Li~＋ ions.展开更多

In recent years, thermal integrity profiling (TIP) has been developed to measure temperature profiles of cast-in-situ piles, enabling the detection of structural defects or anomalies at the early stage of construction. However, using this integrity testing method to evaluate potential defects in cast-in-situ piles requires a comprehensive understanding of the mechanism of hydration heat transfer from piles to surrounding soils. In this study, small-scale model tests were conducted in laboratory to investigate the performance of TIP in detecting pile integrity. Fiber-optic distributed temperature sensing (DTS) technology was used to monitor detailed temperature variations along model piles in sand. Additionally, sensors were installed in sand to measure water content and matric suction. An interpretation method against available DTS-based thermal profiles was proposed to reveal the potential defective regions. It shows that the temperature difference between normal and defective piles is more obvious in wet sand. In addition, there is a critical zone of water migration in sand due to the water absorption behavior of cement and temperature transfer-induced water migration in the early-age concrete setting. These findings could provide important insight into the improvement of the TIP testing method for field applications.展开更多

文摘The Carter model is used to characterize the dynamic behaviors of fracture growth and fracturing fluid leakoff.A thermo-fluid coupling temperature response forward model is built considering the fluid flow and heat transfer in wellbore,fracture and reservoir.The influences of fracturing parameters and fracture parameters on the responses of distributed temperature sensing(DTS)are analyzed,and a diagnosis method of fracture parameters is presented based on the simulated annealing algorithm.A field case study is introduced to verify the model’s reliability.Typical V-shaped characteristics can be observed from the DTS responses in the multi-cluster fracturing process,with locations corresponding to the hydraulic fractures.The V-shape depth is shallower for a higher injection rate and longer fracturing and shut-in time.Also,the V-shape is wider for a higher fracture-surface leakoff coefficient,longer fracturing time and smaller fracture width.Additionally,the cooling effect near the wellbore continues to spread into the reservoir during the shut-in period,causing the DTS temperature to decrease instead of rise.Real-time monitoring and interpretation of DTS temperature data can help understand the fracture propagation during fracturing operation,so that immediate measures can be taken to improve the fracturing performance.

文摘The growing demand for the miniaturization and multifunctionality of optoelectronic devices has promoted the development of transparent ferroelectrics.However,it is difficult for the superior multiple optical properties of these materials to be compatible with the excellent ferroelectricity and piezoelectricity in transparent ceramics.Here,we successfully synthesized Bi/Eu codoped eco-friendly K0.5Na0.5NbO3transparent-ferroelectric ceramics with photo luminescence(PL)behavior,photochromic(PC)reactions and temperature-responsive PL.Based on the distinct optical properties of ceramics at different temperature ranges(room temperature and ultralow temperature),high utilization of multiple optical functions was realized.At room temperature,the PC behavior induced PL modulation contrast reaches 75.2%(at 592 nm),which can be applied in the optical information storage field.In the ultralow temperature range,the ceramics exhibit excellent sensitivity(with a maximum relative sensitivity of26.32%/K)via fluorescence intensity ratio technology and exhibit great application potential in noncontact optical temperature measurements.Additionally,the change in the PL intensity at different wavelengths(I_(614)/I_(592))can serve as a reliable indicator for detecting the occurrence of the phase transition from rhombohedral to orthorhombic at low temperature.This work provides a feasible paradigm for realizing the integration of ferroelectricity and multifarious optical properties in a single optoelectronic material.

文摘In recent years,flexible ionic conductors have made remarkable progress in the fields of energy storage devices and flexible sensors.However,most of these materials still face challenges such as the difficult trade-off between stretchability and high mechanical strength,as well as insufficient ionic conductivity.Among them,polymerizable deep eutectic solvents(PDES),which possess both hydrogen bond network construction capabilities and ionic conduction properties,have demonstrated great advantages in the synthesis of flexible ionic conductors.Herein,we report an ionic conductive elastomer(ICE)named PCHS-X based on PDES composed of 2-(methacryloyloxy)-N,N,N-trimethylammonium methyl sulfate(MA-MS),choline chloride(ChCl),and 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate(HEA).The introduction of MA-MS enabled the polymer network to form abundant hydrogen bonds,endowing PCHS-X with excellent mechanical strength,high transparency,favorable ionic conductivity,self-adhesiveness,and self-healing efficiency.When used as a strain sensor,the PCHS-X exhibits highly sensitive strain response,along with good stability and durability,allowing it to accurately monitor the movement of human body parts such as fingers,wrists,elbows,and knees.Additionally,owing to the enhanced ionic mobility at higher temperatures,this material also possesses excellent temperature sensing performance,enabling the fabrication of simple temperature sensors that can sensitively respond to temperature changes.This research provides new strategies for the practical applications of flexible electronic devices in fields such as wearable health monitoring and intelligent human-machine interaction.

文摘A set of germanate garnet phosphors containing Tb^(3+)and Eu^(3+)were adequately synthesized using the high-temperature solid-state technique.The structural properties,photoluminescence characteristics,fluorescence lifetimes,and temperature-sensing capabilities of the phosphors were thoroughly investigated.X-ray diffraction confirms the crystalline structure of the phosphors,while photoluminescence spectra reveal a colour shift attributed to the trans fer of energy from Tb^(3+)to Eu^(3+)as the concentration of Eu^(3+)increases.The phosphors excited by UV light display a transition in colour from green to yellow,and subsequently to red,which can be used as a colour tunable phosphor in white light-emitting diode(w-LED) applications.As a novel temperature sensing material,the maximum relative sensitivity of Ca_(3)Sc_(2)Ge_(3)O_(12):Tb^(3+),Eu^(3+)phosphor is 0.1044 K-1(298 K),highlighting its potential for applications in temperature sensing.

文摘Er^(3+)-and Tm^(3+)-doped Ca_(x)Sr_(2-x)Nb_(2)O_(7)(C_(x)S_(2-x)N,x=0.6,0.8,1,0,1.2,1,4) phosphors with layered pe rovskite structure were designed.These phosphors exhibit a dominant emission peak at 549 nm under980 nm laser excitation,attributed to the^(4)S_(3/2)→^(4)I_(15/2)transition.By increasing the content of Ca^(2+),the crystal field regulation of rare earth ions is realized and the luminescence enhancement is induced,which is manifested by the increase of^(2)H_(11/2),^(4)S_(3/2)→^(4)I_(15/2)emission.Furthermore,the temperature sensing sensitivities of C_(0.6)S_(1.4)N:Er,Tm and C_(0.6)S_(1.4)N:Er,Tm based on non-thermally coupled energy levels were studied.Finally,an anti-counterfeiting imprint was prepared using phosphors,which have high brightness and excellent photothermal stability.This work not only confirms that closer ionic radii substitution enables to increase the electronic density of states,improve the crystal field symmetry and enhance the luminescence,but also provides a promising phosphor system for temperature sensing and anti-counterfeiting applications,opening up new prospects in the optimization of the optical properties of phosphors.

文摘Upconversion luminescent(UCL)materials have broad application prospects in the field of temperature sensing;thus,improving the luminescence performance and temperature measurement sensitivity of upconversion phosphors is highly important.In this study,SrAl_(2)Si_(2)O_(8)with good thermal stability was doped with Ho^(3+)and Yb^(3+),and the optimal concentration was determined to be S rAl_(2)Si_(2)O_(8):1%Ho^(3+),12%Yb^(3+)(in mole fraction).A series of(Sr_(0.87-x)Ba_(x))Al_(2)Si_(2)O_(8):1%Ho^(3+),12%Yb^(3+)phosphor samples was prepared by using a cationic substitution strategy and further doping Ba^(2+)to replace the Sr^(2+)lattice in the matrix.The re sults show that the introduction of Ba^(2+)effectively replaces Sr^(2+)and significantly increases the upconversion fluorescence emission intensity of SrAl_(2)Si_(2)O_(8):1%Ho^(3+),12%Yb^(3+)by approximately 2.9times.The temperature sensing properties of SrAl_(2)Si_(2)O_(8):1%Ho^(3+),12%Yb^(3+)and Sr_(0.3)7Ba_(0.5)0Al_(2)Si_(2)O_(8):1%Ho^(3+),12%Yb^(3+)were investigated.The Ho^(3+)-based5F5and5S2/5F4nonthermal coupled energy level fluorescence intensity ratio(FIR)techniques in the Ba_(0.3)7S r_(0.50)Al_(2)Si_(2)O_(8):1%Ho^(3+),12%Yb^(3+)phosphors show a maximum temperature measurement absolute sensitivity of 4.32%/K at 573 K and a maximum relative sensitivity of 1.08%/K at 373 K;these values are 5.8 and 3.2 times greater,respectively,than that of the non-Ba^(2+)-doped SrAl_(2)Si_(2)O_(8):1%Ho^(3+),12%Yb^(3+)phosphor.These results not only confirm the effectiveness of the cation substitution strategy in enhancing the upconversion luminescence performance and temperature sensing characteristics but also provide a scientific basis for the design of high-performance optical temperature sensors.

文摘Photon upconversion of lanthanides has been a powerful means to convert low-energy photons into high-energy ones.However,in contrast to the mostly investigated lanthanide ions,it has remained a challenge for the efficient upconversion of Nd^(3+)due to the deleterious concentration quenching effect.Here we report an efficient strategy to enhance the upconversion of Nd^(3+)through the Yb^(3+)-mediated energy cycling in a core-shell-shell nanostructure.Both Nd^(3+)and Yb^(3+)are confined in the interlayer,and the presence of Yb^(3+)in the Nd-sublattice provides a more matched energy for the upconversion transitions occurring at the intermediate state of Nd^(3+)towards much better population at its emissive levels.Moreover,this design also minimizes the possible cross-relaxation processes at both intermediate level and the emissive levels of Nd^(3+)which are the primary factors limiting the upconversion performance for the Nd^(3+)-doped materials.Such energy cycling-enhanced upconversion shows promise in temperature sensing.

文摘Er-Tm3+-Ybtri-doped BaMoOphosphors were synthesized by co-precipitation technique and characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis, absorption study and field emission scanning electron microscopy analysis. Upconversion as well as downconversion luminescence studies were performed by using near infrared(980 nm) and ultraviolet(380 nm) excitations. Energy level diagram, pump power dependence and colour coordinate study were utilized to describe the multicolor upconversion emission properties. Under single 980 nm diode laser excitation the dual mode sensing behaviour is realized via Stark sublevels and thermally coupled energy levels of the Tm3+ and Erions in the prepared tri-doped phosphors. A comparative fluorescence intensity ratio analysis for integrated emission intensities arising from the Stark sublevels {~1 G4(a)) and ~1 G4(b))} and thermally coupled energy levels {~2 Hand 4 S3/2} of the Tm3+ and Er3+ ions, respectively was carried out in the prepared tri-doped BaMoOphosphors. The maximum sensitivity for thermally coupled energy levels of the Er3+ and Stark sublevels of the Tm3+ ion was reported. The developed phosphors could be useful in the display devices and optical thermo metric applications.

文摘Layer-by-layer(LBL)assembly shows great potential in fabrication of flexible conductive cotton fabrics(FCCF)with carbon nanotubes(CNT)as conductive components but is limited because complicated chemical modification of CNT is usually required.Herein,we reported a facile and eco-friendly LBL approach to fabricating FCCF by dipping in chitosan(CS)aqueous solution and poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate)(PSS)wrapped CNT aqueous dispersion alternately.The FCCF with electrical conductivity higher than 30 S/m was achieved when 4 layers of CNT were coated on the cotton fabric(CF).The obtained FCCF possessed outstanding mechanical stability with electrical resistivity almost unchanged after exposure to 500 times mechanical abrasion and 500 circles of tape peeling.The FCCF showed excellent strain sensing performance with high sensitivity(with a gauge factor up to 35.1)and a fast response time(70 ms).It can be used as a strain sensor to accurately detect various human deformations such as finger bending and joint movements.The FCCF could be used as a temperature sensor in that it exhibited stable and reproducible negative temperature sensing behavior in the temperature range of 30-100℃.
文摘LuF_(3):yb^(3+),Er^(3+)microcrystals codoped with Yb^(3+)(rtyb^(3+)/nLu3+=5%-15%)and Er^(3+)ions(nEJnLu3+=1%-5%)were synthesized by a facile hydrothermal process at different pH values.It is found that the pH value has a crucial effect on synthesis of the orthorhombic phase LuF_(3):yb^(3+),Er^(3+).Under 980 nm excitation,LuF_(3):yb^(3+),Ephosphors exhibit strong green upconversion(UC)emission bands centered at 523(2H11/12→4I.15.2)and 539 nm(4S3.2→4I15/3)and weak red emissions near 660 nm(4F9a→4I15/2).The optimum doping concentrations of Er^(3+)and Yb^(3+)for the highest emission intensity were determined by using X-ray diffraction(XRD)and photoluminescence(PL)analyses.Concentration dependent studies reveal that the optimal composition is 10%Yb^(3+)and 2%Er^(3+)co-doping concen-tration with a strong green emission.A possible UC mechanism for LuFg:yb^(3+),Er^(3+)depends on the pump power is discussed.The temperature dependence of the fluorescence intensity ratios(FIR)for the two green UC emission bands peaked at 523 and 539 nm was studied in the range of 293-573 K under excitation by a 980 nm diode laser and the maximum sensitivity was approximately 15.3×10^(-4)K^(-1)at 490 K.This indicates that LuF_(3):Yb^(3+),Er^(3+)phosphors are potential candidates for optical temperature sensors with high sensitivity.

文摘The crystal structure and surface morphology of the Er^(3+)/Yb^(3+)/Na+:ZnWO_(4) phosphors synthesized by solid state reaction method were analyzed by X-ray diffraction(XRD) and field emission scanning electron microscopy(FESEM) analysis.The frequency upconversion(UC) emission study in the developed phosphors was investigated by using 980 nm laser diode excitation.The effect of codoping in the Er^(3+):ZnWO_(4) phosphors on the UC emission intensity was studied.The UC emission bands that are exhibited in the blue(490 nm),green(530,552 nm),red(668 nm) and NIR(800 nm) region correspond to the ^(4)F_(7/2)→^(4)I_(15/2).^(2)H_(11/2),^(4)S_(3/2)→^(4)I_(15/2),^(4)F_(9/2)→^(4)I_(15/2) and ^(4)I9/2→^(4)I_(15/2) transitions,respectively.The temperature sensing performance of the Er^(3+)-Yb^(3+)-Na+:ZnWO_(4) phosphors was investigated based on the 2 H_(11/2)→^(4)I_(15/2) and ^(4)S_(3/2)→^(4)I_(15/2) thermally coupled transitions of the Er^(3+)ions.The photometric study was also carried out for the developed phosphors.

文摘Optical temperature sensing based on the fluorescence intensity ratio(FIR)of red emission for lanthanide ions holds significant relevance in non-contact temperature measurement for biological application.In this study,the perovskite-structured KZnF_(3)is utilized as a host material for Er^(3+)to achieve a high-purity upconversion(UC)red emission.The observed Stark splitting of the red emission peak provides evidence of the energy level splitting of Er^(3+).Group theory is employed to decompose the spectral branching of Er^(3+)under the point group symmetry of KZnF_(3),allowing for the derivation of Stark splitting energy levels induced by the crystal field effect.The optical temperature-sensing behavior of the red UC luminescence was investigated,specifically examining the FIR of the splitting sub-peaks,which exhibited an exponential relationship with temperature.The KZnF_(3):Yb^(3+),Er^(3+)demonstrated a relative sensitivity(S_(r))of 0.00182%·K^(-1)at 298 K,highlighting its excellent response to temperature.Ex vivo bio-thermometry experiments conducted on chicken breast validated the material's ability to penetrate biological tissues and showed its significant sensitivity of the FIR to temperature.These results establish KZnF_(3):Yb^(3+),Er^(3+)as a promising material for optical thermometry in various biological applications.

文摘A series of YNbO_(4):Bi^(3+) and YNbO_(4):Bi^(3+)/Er^(3+) phosphors were prepared by a conventional high temperature solid-state reaction method.The results of XRD and Rietveld refinement confirm that monoclinic phase YNbO_(4)samples are achieved.The down-/up-conversion luminescence of Er^(3+) ions was investigated under the excitation of ultraviolet light(327 nm)and near infrared light(980 nm).Under 327 nm excitation,broad visible emission band from Bi^(3+) ions and characteristic green emission peaks from Er^(3+) ions are simultaneously observed,while only strong green emissions from Er^(3+) ions are detected upon excitation of 980 nm.Remarkable emission enhancement is observed in down-/up-conversion luminescence processes by introducing Bi^(3+) ions into Er^(3+)-doped YNbO_(4)phosphors.Pumped current versus up-conversion emission intensity study shows that two-photon processes are responsible for both the green and the red up-conversion emissions of Er^(3+)ion.Through the study of the temperature sensing property of Er^(3+) ion,it is affirmed that the temperature sensitivity is sensitive to the doping concentration of Bi^(3+) ions.By comparing the experimental values of the radiative transition rate ratio of the two green emission levels of Er^(3+) ions and the theoretical values calculated by Judd-Ofelt(J-O)theory,it is concluded that the temperature sensing property of Er^(3+) ions is greatly affected by the energy level splitting.

文摘Pressure-and temperature-dependent luminescence properties of ^(3)F_(3/2)→^(4)I9/2 transition of Nd^(3+):GdTaO_(4) were studied for potential applications in optical sensing.Two isolated emission lines corresponding to^(3)F_(3/2)(R2,1)→^(4)I_(9/2)(Z5)transitions,located at 920 and 927 nm under ambient condition,are very sensitive to pressure with coefficients of-15.6 and-14.5 cm^(-1)/GPa determined in a pressure range up to about 9 GPa.The luminescence intensity ratio between the two emission lines exhibits a large dependence with temperature in a range from 80 to 620 K,the corresponding temperature sensitivity at room temperature is similar to that of Nd^(3+):YAG.These advantages,together with the other observed features of high stable position relationship under pressure and low thermal shifts for the two emission lines indicate that Nd^(3+):GdTaO_(4) is a promising candidate to be used as pressure and temperature sensors in the near-infrared spectral range.

文摘The effects of Li~＋ co-doping concentration on the structure, upconversion luminescence and temperature sensing behavior of Er^（3＋）：La_2O_3 phosphors were investigated. X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy observations reveal that Li~＋ ion co-doping can change the lattice parameter of La_2O_3 host and increase the particle size of the samples. The optical investigation shows that co-doping of Li~＋ ions can enhance the upconversion emission of Er^（3＋） ions in La_2O_3 matrix effectively. Most importantly, the temperature sensing sensitivity of the samples is found to be dependent on Li~＋ co-doping concentration,when the emission intensity ratio of the（~2H_（11/2）→~4 I_（15/2）） and（~4 S_（3/2）→~4 I_（15/2）） transitions of Er^（3＋） is chosen as the thermometric index. Both of the optimum upconversion luminescence and temperature sensing sensitivity are obtained for 7 mol% Li~＋ co-doped sample. When the Li~＋ concentration is beyond 7 mol%,both the quenching in upconversion intensity and the degradation of temperature sensitivity are observed, which may be due to the serious distortion in local crystal field around Er^（3＋） ions caused by the excess Li~＋ ions.

文摘Defects in cast-in-situ piles have an adverse impact on load transfer at the pile‒soil interface and pile bearing capacity. In recent years, thermal integrity profiling (TIP) has been developed to measure temperature profiles of cast-in-situ piles, enabling the detection of structural defects or anomalies at the early stage of construction. However, using this integrity testing method to evaluate potential defects in cast-in-situ piles requires a comprehensive understanding of the mechanism of hydration heat transfer from piles to surrounding soils. In this study, small-scale model tests were conducted in laboratory to investigate the performance of TIP in detecting pile integrity. Fiber-optic distributed temperature sensing (DTS) technology was used to monitor detailed temperature variations along model piles in sand. Additionally, sensors were installed in sand to measure water content and matric suction. An interpretation method against available DTS-based thermal profiles was proposed to reveal the potential defective regions. It shows that the temperature difference between normal and defective piles is more obvious in wet sand. In addition, there is a critical zone of water migration in sand due to the water absorption behavior of cement and temperature transfer-induced water migration in the early-age concrete setting. These findings could provide important insight into the improvement of the TIP testing method for field applications.
