X 射线转换屏用Tb3+激活磷酸盐发光玻璃

Phosphate glasses 60P2O5-15CS2O- 15Al2O3-10BaO were made by high temperature melt-annealing method. The absorption spectra, excitation spectra and emission spectra of Gd³⁺-Tb³⁺ and Ce3+-Gd³⁺-Tb³⁺ co-doped phosphate glass 60P2O5-15CS2O- 15Al2O3-10BaO were studied. The experimental results indicate that, the doping of Ce3+ and Gd³⁺ in Tb³⁺ phosphate glass has a good effect on the 545 nm emission of Tb³⁺ at UV excitation. The Ce3+-Gd³⁺-Tb³⁺ co-doped phosphate glass have a good x-ray luminescence at the radiation of x-ray with energy in 50-120 kev, and a high space resolution. The Ce3+-Gd³⁺-Tb³⁺ co-doped phosphate luminescence glass is a promising material for using in the digital radiography system in medical devices.

钛宝石中子辐照色心的研究

研究了中子辐照下钛宝石单晶体缺陷的形成及光学性能的变化。对温度梯度法(TGT)生长的钛宝石晶体进行中子辐照。中子能量为1．5MeV，剂量为4．32×10^18 neutrons／cm^2。辐照后194nm吸收峰强度增加,268nm吸收峰强度则降低。荧光谱检测中发现辐照使得420nm荧光峰强度明显降低，荧光峰位置也蓝移至414nm处。分析表明辐照使得钛宝石晶体内形成F^+缺陷，同时Ti^4+离子则转化成Ti^3+离子。辐照后的钛宝石在247C处有热释光TL出现，通过初始上升法计算出其陷阱深度为0．63eV。

Luminescence studies of Ce : YAG using vacuum ultraviolet synchrotron radiation

Photoluminescence spectrum of Ce:YAG single crystal was studied employing vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) synchrotron radiation. Intrinsic absorption edge at about 52,000 cm(-1) was observed in the absorption spectrum. From the VUV excitation spectrum, the energy of the highest d-component of 53,191 cm(-1) (188 nm) for the Ce3+ ions in YAG was obtained at 300 K. The disappearance of the third 5d level at 37,735 cm(-1) (265 nm) in absorption and excitation spectra in our samples may be due to the impurity Fe3+ ions absorption. (C) 2006 Elsevier Ltd.

Solution combustion synthesis, structure and luminescence of Y3Al5O12 : Tb3+ phosphors

The synthesis and optical properties of Y3Al5O12:Tb3+ phosphors are reported in this paper. Y3Al5O12:Tb3+ phosphors were synthesized by a facile solution combustion method. Citric acid traps the constituent cations and also acts as a fuel. Y3Al5O12 (YAG) phase can crystallize through sintering at 900 degrees C for 2 h, and there were no intermediate phases such as YAlO3 (YAP) and Y4Al2O9 (YAM) in the sintering process. The excitation spectra of crystalline Y3Al5O12:Tb3+ are different from that of amorphous one due to the crystal field effect. The emission spectra mainly show D-5(4) -> F-7(6) transition under UV excitation. The higher concentration quenching in Y3Al5O12:Tb3+ nanophosphors may be due to the confinement effect on resonant energy transfer of nanocrystalline. It is also indicated that the solution combustion synthesis method provides a good distribution of Tb3+ activators in Y3Al5O12 host. (c) 2005 Published by Elsevier B.V.

Mg，Ti共掺Al2O3透明多晶陶瓷光谱性能研究

Transparent polycrystalline MgO and TiO2 codoped Al2O3 ceramics were fabricated by conventional solid-state pressureless processing. The absorption, emission and excitation spectra of ( Mg, Ti : Al2O3 ceramics were measured. Owing to charge compensation of Mg2+, only UV absorption around 250nm was observed due to O2- -> Ti4+ charge transfer transitions (CT) when Ti content was low. As a result, the emission peaks of isolated Ti4+ ion located at 280-290nm and 410-420nm were observed. Besides absorption peak of V, ion, the characteristic absorption peak of V, ion centered at 490nm was observed in Mg, Ti) : Al2O3 ceramics when Ti content was high. The emission spectra of Ti3+, ion in polycrystalline Al2O3 ceramics coincide with that of Ti: Al2O3 single crystal.

Propriedades ópticas do Mn2+ em sistemas Mg-Si-O

O objetivo deste trabalho foi investigar amostras do tipo MgSiO dopadas com 1,0% e 5,0% de Mn2+, obtidas em temperatura ambiente que luminesceram na faixa do vermelho. As amostras foram produzidas por reação de estado sólido sob alta temperatura e caracterizadas e pelo método de difração de raios X. Para análise das características físicas presentes na amostra após a dopagem, usamos a espectroscopia de fotoluminescência. Através da teoria do campo cristalino, dos espectros de luminescência e excitação e com a ajuda do diagrama e das matrizes de Tanabe-Sugano, foi possível identificar as luminescências, os níveis de energia excitados, os parâmetros de energia do campo cristalino, os parâmetros de Racah e a simetria do sítio ocupado por Mn2+.

Propriedades luminescentes do SrGa2O4 dopado com íons de Ni2+

O objetivo deste trabalho é a síntese e investigação estrutural e óptica de amostras SrGa2O4 dopados com 1% de íons Ni2+. Estas amostras foram sintetizados por reação do estado sólido convencional, utilizando como materiais de partida de alta pureza Ga2O3, SrCO3 e NiO em quantidades estequiométricas. As amostras foram caracterizadas estruturalmente pelo método de difração de raios - X( XRD ) e as medições de difração mostraram que as amostras têm uma única fase monoclínica. Os padrões de XRD também foram refinados pelo método de Rietveld, que permitiu a determinação dos parâmetros de célula unitária. A Caracterização óptica das amostras puras e dopadas SrGa2O4 foram realizadas as medições a partir de fotoluminescência, de excitação e de absorção fotoacústica, à temperatura ambiente. Os espectros de emissão mostraram três bandas de emissão localizadas em 557 nm, 661 nm e 844 nm e foram identificadas essas bandas, respectivamente, com as seguintes transições eletrônicas :1T2 (1D) → 3A2 (3F), 3T1 (3F)→ 3A2 (3F) e 1T2 (1D) → 3T2 (3F). Os espectros de excitação mostraram seis bandas de absorção associadas às transições electrônicas do nível 3A2 (3F) para o 3T1 (3P) , T1 (3P), 1A1 (1G), 1T2 (1D), 3T1 (3F), 1E (1D) e 1T2, 1E (1G). Medidas de absorção fotoacústica também foram realizados com o fim de verificar as transições ópticas observadas nos espectros de excitação e de identificar novas bandas de absorção óptica. Os resultados demonstraram que os íons de Ni2+ ocupam dois locais octaédricos diferentes na amostra SrGa2O4 dopado. A partir das transições ópticas observadas nos espectros de excitação e fotoacústica, determinou-se o parâmetro de cristal de campo, dq, e parâmetros Racah, B e C. A proporção Dq / B ≈ 1.2 para ambos os locais são típicos para Ni2+ íons inseridos em redes de óxido e em coordenação octaédrica.

Propriedades fotoluminescentes e higroscopia do composto SrAl2O4 dopado com íons de Ni2+

Amostras foram preparadas pelo método de difusão a partir dos reagentes químicos SrCO3, Al2O3 e NiO em proporções estequiométricas. Medidas por difração de raios X mostraram que as amostras possuem uma única fase: SrAl2O4. Neste trabalho apresentamos imagens de microscopia eletrônica de varredura das amostras SrAl2O4 dopadas com 0,1%, 0,5%, 1,0%, 2,0%, 5,0% e 10,0% de íons de Ni2+, medidas de fotoluminescência, excitação da fotoluminescência da amostra SrAl2O4 dopada com 1,0% de íons de Ni2+, medidas de absorção fotoacústica das amostras SrAl2O4 dopadas com 1,0%, 2,0%, 5,0% e 10,0% de íons de Ni2+. Estas medidas foram realizadas a temperatura ambiente para investigar as transições eletrônicas dos íons divalente de níquel que entraram substitucionalmente nos sítios de Sr2+ da rede do SrAl2O4. Os resultados ópticos mostram a existência de três centros emissores de Ni2+. De acordo com a literatura, a estrutura do SrAl2O4 é composta de dois sítios octaédrico distintos de íons de Sr2+, o Sr12+ e o Sr22+, cujas distâncias médias Sr1 O e Sr2 O são, respectivamente, 2,800 Ǻ e 2,744 Ǻ. Visto que os íons de Ni2+ tendem a substituir os íons de Sr2+, devido ao fato de possuírem a mesma valência, é necessário considerar que uma parte dos íons de Ni2+ ocuparam os sítios dos íons de Al3+ na rede do SrAl2O4 para justificar a existência de um terceiro centro emissor de Ni2+ nesse composto. Uma novo sítio octaédrico para os íons de Ni2+ foi estimado a partir do valor da aresta do sítio tetraédrico ocupado pelos íons de Al3+ na rede do SrAl2O4 (considerando o raio iônico do Ni2+ como aproximadamente 40% maior do que o raio iônico do Al3+). As transições eletrônicas presentes nos espectros de excitação e absorção fotoacústica permitiram determinar os parâmetros de campo cristalino (Dq) e Racah (B e C) para os três sítios diferentes ocupados pelos íons de Ni2+ no SrAl2O4. Neste caso, os resultados mostraram que o sítio II dos íons de Ni2+ é associado à posição do Sr1 e possuem um parâmetro Dq menor e que o parâmetro Dq associado aos íons de Ni2+ que substituíram os íons de Sr no sitio I, o qual, por sua vez é associado à posição do Sr2. E, por fim, o sítio III que possui o menor parâmetro de campo cristalino Dq, portanto a maior distância íon ligante, é identificado como aquele relacionado ao rearranjo octaédrico local das antigas posições de Al3+. O caráter higroscópico do SrAl2O4:Ni2+ é observado a partir dos espectros de absorção fotoacústica e os modos de vibração de estiramento das ligações Ni OH e O H são identificadas nos espectros.

Optical and magnetic properties of ZnS nanoparticles doped with Mn2+

ZnS:Mn nanoparticles of the cubic zinc blende structure with the average sizes of about 3 nm were synthesized using a coprecipitation method and their optical and magnetic properties were investigated. Two emission bands were observed in doped nanoparitcles and attributed to the defect-related emission of ZnS and the Mn2+ emission, respectively. With the increase of Mn2+ concentration, the luminescence intensities of these two emission bands increased and the ZnS emission band shifted to lower energy. Based on the luminescence excitation spectra of Mn2+, the 3d(5) level structure of Mn2+ in ZnS nanoparticles is similar to that in bulk ZnS:Mn, regardless of Mn2+ concentration. Magnetic measurements showed that all the samples exhibit paramagnetic behavior and no antiferromagnetic interaction between Mn2+ ions exists, which are in contrast to bulk ZnS:Mn.

Collective excitations in coupled quantum wells

The dielectric response of a modulated three-dimensional electron system composed of a periodic array of quantum wells with weak coupling and strong coupling are studied, and the dispersions of the collective excitations and the single particle excitations as functions of wave vectors are given. It is found that for the nearly isolated multiple-quantum-well case with several subbands occupation, there is a three-dimensional-like plasmon when q(z)=0 (q(z) is the wave-vector component in the superlattice axis). There also exist intersubband collective excitations in addition to one intra-subband mode when q(z) not equal 0. The intra-subband mode has a linear dispersion relation with q(//) (the wave-vector component perpendicular to the superlattice axis) when q(//) is small. The inter-subband modes cover wider ranges in q(//) with increasing values of q(z). The energies of inter-subband collective excitations are close by the corresponding inter-subband single-particle excitation spectra. The collective excitation dispersions show obvious anisotropy in the 2D quantum limit. The calculated results agree with the experiment. The coupling between quantum wells affects markedly both the collective excitations and the single particle excitations spectra. The system shows gradually a near-three-dimensional electron gas character with increasing coupling. Copyright (C) 1996 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd

Photoluminescence of ZnS clusters in zeolite-Y

Two obvious emissions are observed from the ZnS clusters encapsulated in zeolite-Y. The emission around 355 nm is sharp and weak, locating at the onset of the absorption edge. The band around 535 nm is broad, strong and Stokes-shifted. Both the two emissions shift to blue and their intensities firstly increase then decrease as the loading of ZnS in zeolite-Y or clusters size decreases. Through investigation, the former is attributed to the excitonic fluorescence, and the latter to the trapped luminescence from surface states. The cluster size-dependence of the luminescence may be explained qualitatively by considering both the carrier recombination and the nonradiative recombination rates. Four peaks appearing in the excitation spectra are assigned to the transitions of 1S-1S, 1S-1P, 1S-1D and surface state, respectively. The excitation spectra of the clusters do not coincide with their absorption spectra. The states splitted by quantum-size confinement are detected in the excitation spectra, but could not be differentiated in the optical absorption spectra due to inhomogeneous broadening. The size-dependence of the excitation spectra is similar to that of the absorption spectra. Both the excitation spectra of excitonic and of trapped emissions are similar, but change in relative intensity and shift in position are observed.

Optical characterization of InAs monolayer quantum structures grown on (311)A, (311)B, and (100)GaAs substrates

Low-temperature photoluminescence and excitation spectra from InAs monolayer quantum structures, grown on (311)A, (311)B, and (100) GaAs substrates, are investigated, The structures were grown simultaneously by conventional molecular-beam epitaxy (MBE), The experimental results show that the quality of InAs monolayer on (311)B GaAs substrate is obviously better in crystal quality than those on the two other oriented GaAs substrates. In addition, the transition peaks of the InAs layer grown on (311) GaAs substrates shift to higher energy with respect to that from the InAs layer grown on (100) GaAs substrate.

Harvesting Excitons Via Two Parallel Channels for Efficient White Organic LEDs with Nearly 100% Internal Quantum Efficiency: Fabrication and Emission-Mechanism Analysis

By incorporating two phosphorescent dyes, namely, iridium(III)[bis(4,6-difluorophenyl)-pyridinato-N,C-2']picolinate (Flrpic) for blue emission and bis(2-(9,9-diethyl-9H-fluoren-2-yl)-1-phenyl-1 H-benzoimidazol-N,C-3) iridium(acetylacetonate) ((fbi)(2)Ir(acac)) for orange emission, into a single-energy well-like emissive layer, an extremely high-efficiency white organic light-emitting diode (WOLED) with excellent color stability is demonstrated. This device can achieve a peak forward-viewing power efficiency of 42.5 lm W-1, corresponding to an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 19.3% and a current efficiency of 52.8 cd A(-1). Systematic studies of the dopants, host and dopant-doped host films in terms of photophysical properties (including absorption, photoluminescence, and excitation spectra), transient photoluminescence, current density-voltage characteristics, and temperature-dependent electroluminescence spectra are subsequently performed, from which it is concluded that the emission natures of Flrpic and (fbi)(2)Ir(acac) are, respectively, host-guest energy transfer and a direct exciton formation process. These two parallel pathways serve to channel the overall excitons to both dopants, greatly reducing unfavorable energy losses.
