Under excitation of a 980-nm laser diode （LD）, compared with the glass before heat treatment, the Tm^3＋/Er^3＋/yb^3＋ co-doped oxyfluorogermanate glass ceramics can emit intense blue, green and red up-conversion luminescence and Stark- split peaks; X-ray diffraction （XRD） and transmission electron microscope （TEM） results show that BaF2 nanocrystals with an average diameter of 20 nm are precipitated from the glass matrix. Stark splitting of the up-conversion luminescence peaks in the glass ceramics indicates that Tm^3＋, Er^3＋ and （or） Yb^3＋ ions are incorporated into the BaF2 nanocrystals. The up-conversion luminescence intensities of Tm^3＋, Er^3＋ and the splitting degree of luminescence peaks in the glass ceramics increase significantly with the increase of heat treat temperature and heat treat time extension. In addition, the possible energy transfer process between rare earth ions and the up-conversion luminescence mechanism are also proposed.展开更多
A novel red-emitting phosphor, CaYA1307： Eu^3＋, Sm^3＋, is synthesized by a combustion method at a low temperature （850 ℃）, and the single phase of CaYA1307 is confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction measurements. ...A novel red-emitting phosphor, CaYA1307： Eu^3＋, Sm^3＋, is synthesized by a combustion method at a low temperature （850 ℃）, and the single phase of CaYA1307 is confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction measurements. The photoluminescence property results reveal that the red emission intensity of Eu^3＋ is strongly dependent on the Sm^3＋ concentration. Only the Eu^3＋ luminescence is detected in the Eu^3＋-Sm^3＋ co-doped CaYA1307 phosphor with 393 nm excitation. However, under the characteristic excitation （402 nm） of Sm^3＋, not only the Sm^3＋ emission but also the Eu^3＋ emission are observed. A possible mechanism of the energy transfer between Sm^3＋ and Eu3＋ is investigated in detail.展开更多

After heat treatments, transmission electron microscopy （TEM） images showed that CaF2 nano-crystals of 20-30 nm in diameter precipitated uniformly in the glass matrix. luminescence of Er^3＋ at 540 nm and 658 nm was observed in Comparing with the host glass, high efficiency upconversion the glass ceramics under the excitation of 980 nm. Moreover, the size of the precipitated nano-crystals can be controlled by heat-treatment temperature and time. With the increase of the nano-crystal size, the intensity of the red emission increased more rapidly than that of the green emission. The energy transfer process of Er^3＋ and Yb^3＋ was convinced and the possible mechanism of Er^3＋ up-conversion was discussed.展开更多
