ELECTRON-TRANSFER BETWEEN EU AND TB IN COMPLEX FLUORIDES

Europium (II) and europium (III) have been observed in MMgF(4):xEu, yTb (M=Ca, Sr, Ba) phosphors using their typical photoluminescence spectra when are synthesized in Ar or an Ar/H-2 stream. The valence state of Eu is influenced by terbium. It is notable that the intensities of the electron spin resonance peaks corresponding to Eu2+ change in a regular way when terbium ions are incorporated which can be explained by an electron transfer mechanism.

SYNTHESIS AND SPECTRAL CHARACTERISTICS OF DIVALENT SAMARIUM ACTIVATED BINARY FLUORIDES

A simple technique for preparation of powder binary fluorides activated with divalent samarium ions is described. The samarium impurity is introduced as samarium trifluoride SmF3 and hydrogen acts as the reducing agent to transform Sm3+ into Sm2+. Using this method, samarium has been stabilized in the divalent state in some fluorides: KMgF3, LiBaF3, BaBeF4, SrMgF4 and BaMgF4. Moreover, BaBeF4, SrMgF4 and BaMgF4 have never been activated with Sm2+ ions up to now. We also find that under the same synthetic conditions samarium can not be stabilized in the divalent state in some fluorides: KCaF3, CaBeF4 and CaMgF4, but the characteristic luminescence of trivalent samarium Sm3+ appears in these matrices. The emission and excitation spectra of samarium (Sm2+ and Sm3+) in these binary fluorides are presented and briefly discussed. The relationship between the oxidation state of samarium and the composition, the structure of matrices is also analyzed.

SEARCH FOR THE BASIC REGULARITIES OF THE TRANSITION EMISSION OF EUROPIUM(II) ION IN COMPLEX FLUORIDES USING PATTERN-RECOGNITION

The relationship between structures of complex fluorides and spectral structure of Eu(II) ion in complex fluorides (AB(m)F(n)) is investigated by means of pattern recognition methods, such as KNN, ALKNN, BAYES, LLM, SIMCA and PCA. A learning set consisting of 32 f-f transition emission host compounds and 31 d-f transition emission host compounds and a test set consisting of 27 host compounds were characterized by 12 crystal structural parameters. These parameters, i.e. features, were reduced from 12 to 6 by multiple criteria for the classification of these host compounds as f-f transition emission or d-f transition emission. A recognition rate from 79.4 to 96.8% and prediction capabilities from 85.2 to 92.6% were obtained. According to the above results, the spectral structures of Eu(II) ion in seven unknown host lattices were predicted.
