The Sr3SiO5：Eu^2＋ phosphor was synthesized by high temperature solid-state reaction. The emission spectrum of Sr3SiO5：Eu^2＋ shows two bands centered at 487 and 575 nm, which well agree with the theoretic values of emission spectrum.

Synthesis and luminescence properties of Mn4+-dopant Ca14Zn6Ga10−xAlxO35 solid solution

Mn~(4+)-activated oxide phosphors,owing to their desirable spectral features,eco-friendly and low cost,are emerging as a new class of non-rare-earth red phosphors for warm white LEDs.However,these phosphors possess low photoluminescence quantum efficiency excited by blue chip currently.Herein we report an isostructural solid solution of Ca_(14)Zn_6Ga_(10-x)Al_xO_(35):0.15Mn~(4+)(0≤x≤10)synthesized by a traditional solidstate reaction route.The microstructure and luminescent performance of this red-emitting phosphor are investigated in detail with the aids of X-ray diffraction,diffuse reflection spectra,photoluminescence spectra/decay/QE,and temperature-dependent PL/QE measurements.Blue shift of energy peaks of~4A_2→~4T_1and~4A_2→~4T_2transition is illustrated by the Tanabe–Sugano diagram and the configurational coordinate diagram.The crystal field strength(Dq)and the Racah parameters(B and C)are carefully calculated to estimate the nephelauxetic effectβrespectively.Particularly we achieve external and internal quantum efficiencies as high as26.1%and 40.3%for Ca_(14)Zn_6Ga_6Al_4O_(35):0.15Mn~(4+)excited by 466 nm,the highest one ever reported in Mn~(4+)activated oxide phosphors under the similar condition.     

Internal energy transfer phenomenon and light-emission properties of γ-LiAlO2 phosphor doped with Mn2+

γ-LiAlO₂:Mn²⁺ phosphor was synthesized using the cellulose-citric acid sol-gel method, and its light emission and energy transfer properties were investigated. Excitation and emission spectrum analysis revealed a decrease in intensity of the spectrum as the amount of Mn²⁺ doping increased. Blasse’s equation determined the maximum distance for energy transfer between Mn²⁺ ions as 4.3142 nm. Dexter’s theory verifies that the mechanism of energy transfer between Mn²⁺ ions conforms to an electric dipole and electric quadrupole interaction.     

Potential red-emitting phosphor GdNbO4:Eu3+,Bi3+ for near-UV white light emitting diodes

A red-emitting phosphor GdNbO₄:Eu³⁺,Bi³⁺ was prepared by a high temperature solid-state reaction technique. The phosphor was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), particle size analyzer and fluorescence spectrometer. The single phase of GdNbO₄:Eu³⁺,Bi³⁺ was obtained at 1150°C and the average particle diameter was about 2.30 ??m. Excitation and emission spectra reveal that the phosphor can be efficiently excited by ultraviolet (UV) light (394 nm) and emit the strong red light of 612 nm due to the Eu³⁺ transition of ⁵D₀??⁷F₂. The optimum content of Eu³⁺ doped in the phosphor GdNbO₄:Eu³⁺ is 20mol%. The phosphor Gd_0.80NbO₄:0.20Eu³⁺,0.03Bi³⁺ shows much stronger photoluminescence intensity and better chromaticity coordinates (x=0.642, 0.352) than GdNbO₄:Eu³⁺. It is confirmed that Gd_0.80NbO₄:0.20Eu³⁺,0.03Bi³⁺ is a potential candidate for near-UV chip-based white light emitting diodes.     

Improvement of tensile behaviours of a γ'-Co3(Al,W) strengthened polycrystalline Co-9Al-4.5W-4.5Mo-2Ta-0.02B alloy at room-and high-temperatures by doping Ce

The microstructures and tensile behaviours of cerium (Ce) doped polycrystalline Co-9Al-4.5W-4.5Mo-2Ta-0.02B alloys (doped 0.05 and 0.2 at.% Ce) at room temperature (RT) and 600–800 °C were investigated. In-suit tensile test under SEM was conducted to understand the deformation and damage mechanisms at RT. Aged at 800 °C for 50 h, the 0.05Ce alloy consisted of a Co solid-solution matrix (γ-Co_SS) and nano-scale cuboidal γ′-Co₃(Al, W) precipitates, while for the 0.2Ce alloy, κ-Co₃(W, Mo) precipitates and γ′-depleted zone were present at the grain boundaries in addition to the γ/γ′ microstructure. The 0.05Ce alloy exhibited flow stress anomalies at 700 °C. With higher Σ1∼3 boundary fraction and cleaned-up grain boundary, the 0.05Ce alloy always showed greater strength and elongation than the 0.2 Ce alloy with the grain boundary precipitates at temperatures up to 800 °C. Doped 0.05 at.% Ce made the Co-9Al-4.5W-4.5Mo-2Ta-0.02B alloy have an excellent elongation of 6.1% at 700 °C, owing to a mixed transgranular dimple plus intergranular cleavage fracture. The slip bands transferring through the low-angle grain boundary and slipping of the γ′-Co₃(Al, W) in the 0.5Ce alloy resulted in excellent ductility of 20.4% at RT.     

Structure and effect of diamagnetism on manganese lithium phosphate glass to cathode materials application

1-x(Li₂O–2P₂O₅)-xMnO₂ glasses where x ?= ?0.2, 0.3 and 0.4 ?mol%, respectively, were synthesized by melted-quenching method. The Mn and P oxidation states and local structures around Mn and P-ions including Mn–O and P–O bonding distances and coordination numbers have been studied via X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS), respectively. XANES results exhibit a coexistence of oxidation state of Mn²⁺ and Mn³⁺ with a mean value of 2.82. Moreover, Mn and P K-edge EXAFS show the Mn–O and P–O bonding distances of approximately 2.083–2.094 ?Å and 1.766–1.774 ?Å, respectively. A paramagnetism was found for all Mn–P glasses. Additionally, the coercive field (H_c) and remnant magnetization (M_r) increased with increasing Mn contents. However, the low specific capacitances are seriously obtained (<40 ?F ?g^?1) suggesting the effect of natural diamagnetism of lithium phosphate based-glass unlike the borate based-glasses which originally exhibit paramagnetism.     

Multi-color long-lasting phosphorescence of rare earth ions in CdSiO<Subscript>3</Subscript> matrix

A series of rare earth ions doped CdSiO3:RE^3 (RE=Y, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho,Er, Tin, Yb, Lu) multi-color long-lasting phosphorescence phosphors are prepared by the conventional hightemperature solid-state method. The results of XRD measurement indicate that the products fired under 1050~C for 3h have a good crystallization without any detectable amount of impurity phase. Rare earth ions doped CdSiO3 phosphors possess excellent Inmiuescence properties. When rare earth ions such as Y^3 , La^3 , Gd^3 , Lu^3 , Ce^3 , Nd^3 , Ho^3 , Er^3 ,Tm^3 and Yb^3 are introduced into the CdSiO3 host, one broadband centered at about 420 nm resulting from traps can be observed. In the case of other earth ions such as Pr^3 ,Sm^3 , Eu^3 , Tb^3 and Dy^3 , their characteristic line emitting as well as the -420 nm broadband luminescence can be obtained. The mixture of their characteristic line emitting with the -420 nm broadband Inminescence results in various afterglow color.

The luminescence properties of Sr3Gd(BO3)3: Tb3+ phosphors under vacuum ultraviolet excitation

Tb3+-activated Sr3Gd(BO3)3 green phosphors were prepared by conventional solid-state reaction. The vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) excitation, photoluminescence (PL) and decay properties of the phosphors in the visible range were investigated. The excitation spectrum showed a strong broad band from 160 to 200 nm with a maximum at 183 nm which was adjacent to the VUV excitation light source of 172 nm. Under excitation at 172 nm, the optimum co-doping concentration of Tb3+ was 10 mol%, and the emission intensity of Sr3Gd0.9(BO3)3:0.1Tb3+ was comparable to that of commercial Zn2SiO4:Mn2+. The strongest emission peak of Sr3Gd0.9(BO3)3:0.1Tb3+ was at 543 nm with chromaticity coordinates of (0.2626, 0.4922) and a lifetime of 2.32 ms. The optical properties of the green phosphor Sr3Gd(BO3)3:Tb3+ make it suitable for use in Hg-free fluorescent lamps and plasma display panels.     

Synthesis and luminescence properties of Ca2SiO4-based red phosphors with Sm3+ doping for white LEDs

Sm³⁺-activated Ca₂SiO₄ red phosphors were prepared by the conventional high-temperature solid-state reaction method, and the effects of sodium (Na⁺) and samarium (Sm³⁺) ions doping concentrations on their crystal structure and luminescent properties were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and fluorescent spectrofluorometer. XRD patterns demonstrate that a well-crystalline structure forms in the phosphors when they are treated by calcination at 1200°C for 4 h, and the excitation spectra exhibit good absorption in the range between 350 and 420 nm. Under the irradiation of 405 nm near-ultraviolet (NUV) light, the spectra of the phosphors show a main emission peak at 601 nm attributed to the ⁴G_5/2??⁶H_7/2 transition of Sm³⁺ ions, and its intensity is greatly influenced by the concentrations of Sm³⁺ and Na₂CO₃. When the concentrations of Sm³⁺ ions and Na₂CO₃ are 2mol% and 6mol%, respectively, the optimal emission intensity can be obtained. From strong absorption in the near ultraviolet zone, the Na_0.06Sm_0.02Ca_1.92SiO₄ phosphor is a promising red-emitting phosphor for white light emitting diodes (W-LEDs).

Effect of Ce addition on hot tearing behavior of AZ91 alloy

A small amount of cerium (below 1.0 wt%) addition to AZ91 alloy have been investigated on the hot tearing susceptibility (HTS) at a cooling rate of 1.5Ks^?1. The HTS increased to a maximum value with a cerium addition of 0.6 wt% and then decreased to a stable status as cerium was gradually added. Due to high chemical activity, cerium into the melts can react with aluminum to form an Al₁₁Ce₃ intermetallic compound. X–ray diffraction results also confirmed the existence of Al₁₁Ce₃. The Al₁₁Ce₃ increased with the presence of the needle-like and block morphology. As cerium levels increased, the amount of Mg₁₇Al₁₂ decreased. The variations between Mg₁₇Al₁₂ and Al₁₁Ce₃ resulted in a similar normal distribution of the HTS in AZ91 alloy. The findings were further verified through the microstructure evolution and the surface morphology of fracture.

Up-conversion luminescence of Er^3＋ doped and Er^3＋/Yb^3＋ co-doped YTaO4

The synthesis and up-conversion luminescent properties of YTaO4：Er^3＋ and YTaO4：Er^3＋/Yb^3＋ are reported for the first time. According to the measurement results of up-conversion spectra, Yb^3＋ co-doping can remarkably enhance the green （^2H11/2/^4S3/2→^4I15/2） and red （^4F9/2→^4I15/2） emissions, but depress the infrared emission （^4I9/2→^4I15/2）. With the increase of the Yb^3＋ concentration, the intensity of green emission increases, after that, when the Yb^3＋ concentration increases continuously, the intensity of green emission decreases, while those of the red and infrared emissions increase and decrease alternately. In addition, the up-conversion mechanisms of Er^3＋ doped and Er^3＋/Yb^3＋ co-doped YTaO4 are also discussed. It is found that the transform of up-conversion mechanism from two-step energy transfer to cooperating sensitization takes place when Yb^3＋ concentration is increased up to 12 mol%. With the further increase of Yb^3＋ concentration, the energy-back-transfer gradually becomes the dominant up-conversion mechanism, which results in the quenching of the green emission and slight increasing of the red and infrared emissions.     

Effects of Ce, Y, and Sm doping on the thermoelectric properties of Bi2Te3 alloy

Nanopowders of elements doped Bi2Te3thermoelectric alloy R0.2Bi1.8Te3(R Ce,Y and Sm)were synthesized by the hydrothermal method.The nanopowders were hot-pressed into pellets and their thermoelectric properties were investigated.The results show that Ce,Y,and Sm doping has signifcant effects on the morphologies of the synthesized nanopowders and thermoelectric properties.Among the doping elements,Ce doping is a superiority dopant.Although the electrical conductivity and Seebeck coeffcient are not improved much by Ce doping,the thermal conductivity is supressed greatly.As a result the fgure of merit(ZT) of Ce0.2Bi1.8Te3is improved and reaches 1.29 at 398 K,which is higher than the Bi2Te3ingots made by the traditional zone-melting method
