TGA curves of the gel precursor for two series depicted that the loss of residual organic groups and NO3 groups occurs below 450 ℃. According to the XRD patterns, the major diffraction peaks of the MgSiO3 and Mg2SiO4 series are consistent with a proto-enstatite structure (JCPDS No.11-0273) and a forsterite structure (JCPDS No.85-1364) respectively. With the excitation at 415 nm, the red emission band of Mn2+ ions is peaked at 661 nm for MgSiO3:1%(atom fraction) Mn2+ or 644 nm for Mg2SiO4:1%(atom fraction) Mn2+. Compared with Mg2SiO4:Mn2+ samples, MgSiO3:Mn2+ samples exhibit higher luminescence intensity and higher quenching concentration. In addition, the two series co-doped with Eu2+, Dy3+, Mn2+ were also prepared. Photo-luminescence and afterglow properties of the two co-doped series were analyzed, which show that MgSiO3:Eu2+, Dy3+, Mn2+ is more suitable for a red long-lasting phosphor.展开更多

The optimum calcination tem-perature and the optimum concentration of Eu3+ are 1 100 ℃ and 1 mol%, respectively, under which the best crystallinity and highest PL intensity appeared. The maximum emission wavelength is 592 nm (5D0→7F1) which is excited by xenon lamp with the wavelength of 200-280 nm, indicating that the Eu3+ ion mainly locates in the symmetric position (Oh) in the crystal lattice of CaO.展开更多

Their microstructures and morphologies are characterized by X-ray powder diffraction and transmission electronic microscope, and the results show that each of all the samples has a monophasic zircon-type structure.

X-ray diffraction, used to characterize the crystallization process of the phosphor precursors, indicates that the (SrNa)2-xEux(MoO4)3 phosphors had an SrMoO4 structure. The properties of these resulting phosphors have also been characterized by using photoluminescence (PL) spectra. The PL results indicate that all of the (SrNa)2-xEux(MoO4)3 phosphors exhibit intense red emissions under 275, 395, and 465-nm excitation. The two strongest lines at 395 and 465 nm in the excitation spectra of these phosphors match well with the two popular emissions from near-UV and blue GaN-based light-emitting diodes. Some process parameters for Eu3+ concentration, (C6H8O7)·H2O concentration, and solution pH value were also investigated. For (SrNa)2-xEux(MoO4)3 phosphors, there are two maximum emission intensities appearing with x = 0.6 and x = 1.4, respectively. When the molar ratio of citric acid is equal to that of metal cations and the solution pH is almost 4, (SrNa)2-xEux(MoO4)3 shows the strongest emission intensity compared to those under other conditions.展开更多

Under the irradiation of 405nm near-ultraviolet (NUV) light, the spectra of the phosphors show a main emission peak at 601nm attributed to the 4G5/2 → 6H7/2 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 Na0.06 Sm0.02Ca1.92SiO4 phosphor is a promising red-emitting phosphor for white light emitting diodes (W-LEDs).展开更多

文摘A complete solid solutions with monophasic zircon-type structure of vanadates of formula GdxBi0.95-xVO4:0.05Eu3+(x = 0–0.95) are synthesized by combined method of co-precipitation and hydrothermal synthesis. Their microstructures and morphologies are characterized by X-ray powder diffraction and transmission electronic microscope, and the results show that each of all the samples has a monophasic zircon-type structure. The absorption spectrum of the prepared phosphor shows a blue-shift of the fundamental absorption band edge with increasing the gadolinium content. Under UV-light and visible-light excitation, all the prepared phosphors show the typical luminescence properties of Eu3+in the zircon-type structure. The emission intensity of GdxBi0.95-xVO4:0.05Eu3+(x = 0.55) is strongest in all samples under UV-light and visible-light excitations. Finally, the mechanisms of luminescence of Eu3+in the GdxBi0.95-xVO4:0.05Eu3+(x = 0–0.95)solid solutions are analyzed and discussed.
文摘A series of (SrNa)2-xEux(MoO4)3 red phosphors have been synthesized by using the sol-gel method. X-ray diffraction, used to characterize the crystallization process of the phosphor precursors, indicates that the (SrNa)2-xEux(MoO4)3 phosphors had an SrMoO4 structure. The properties of these resulting phosphors have also been characterized by using photoluminescence (PL) spectra. The PL results indicate that all of the (SrNa)2-xEux(MoO4)3 phosphors exhibit intense red emissions under 275, 395, and 465-nm excitation. The two strongest lines at 395 and 465 nm in the excitation spectra of these phosphors match well with the two popular emissions from near-UV and blue GaN-based light-emitting diodes. Some process parameters for Eu3+ concentration, (C6H8O7)·H2O concentration, and solution pH value were also investigated. For (SrNa)2-xEux(MoO4)3 phosphors, there are two maximum emission intensities appearing with x = 0.6 and x = 1.4, respectively. When the molar ratio of citric acid is equal to that of metal cations and the solution pH is almost 4, (SrNa)2-xEux(MoO4)3 shows the strongest emission intensity compared to those under other conditions.

文摘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 4h, and the excitation spectra exhibit good absorption in the range between 350 and 420nm. Under the irradiation of 405nm near-ultraviolet (NUV) light, the spectra of the phosphors show a main emission peak at 601nm attributed to the 4G5/2 → 6H7/2 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 Na0.06 Sm0.02Ca1.92SiO4 phosphor is a promising red-emitting phosphor for white light emitting diodes (W-LEDs).

文摘Highly efficient phosphors under vacuum ultraviolet excitation are still demanded for the development of plasma display panels and Hg-free fluorescent lamps. The phosphors of Eu3+ doped (Y, Gd, Lu)BO3 were synthesized with solid state reaction method and the contents of Y3+, Gd3+, and Lu3+ for plasma display panel red phosphor were optimized under vacuum ultraviolet excitation. Two new potential candidates, which were (Y1-S-TGdSLuT)BO3: Eu3+ (0<S<0.2, 0<T≤0.1) and (GdIYJLuK)BO3: Eu3+ (0.5<I<0.7, 0.2<J<0.4, 0<K≤0.1), were obtained. The mechanism of luminescence improvement was discussed upon the analysis of crystal microstructure and excitation spectra.

文摘The S-scheme heterojunctions can effectively separate photogenerated electrons and holes,retain their high redox capacity,and provide great prospects for enhancing the photocatalytic activity of the composites in different fields.Herein,S-scheme heterojunction photocatalytic materials were rationally designed and prepared by a simple hydrothermal method between narrow-bandgap red phosphorus(HRP)and wide-bandgap BaTiO_(3)(BTO)photocatalysts.Owing to the effective charge separation and redox ability from the S-scheme mechanism and oxygen vacancies,BTO/HRP exhibited good photoelectrochemical and photocatalytic degradation ability.Systematic photoreaction tests demonstrated that BTO/HRP had high practicality in the removal of pollutants from wastewater;its photodegradation rate of Rhodamine B reached 3.029×10^(−1) min^(−1) in 12 min;and it could inactivate 1.8×10^(9) CFU/mL of Escherichia.coli in 1 h,with an antibacterial rate of 99.8%.This paper provided a promising photocatalyst for pollutant removal and a new strategy for the fabrication of efficient RP-based photocatalytic materials.

文摘Red phosphor,with longer wavelength,is highly desirable for full-spectrum WLEDs.Targeted deep red phosphors(Sr,Gd)Li(AI,Mg)_(3)N_(4):Eu^(2+)were designed from the initial model of SrLiAl_(3)N_(4):Eu^(2+)by structural modification.The correlations among structural evolution,crystal-field environment,and luminescence properties were elucidated.Replacing Sr^(2+)with Gd^(3+)in(Sr,Gd)LiAl_(3)N_(4):Eu^(2+)leads to the enhanced crystal field splitting,larger Stokes shift,and increased structural polyhedron distortion differences,consequently resulting in spectral red-shift and broadening.For further spectral tuning,Mg,with lower electronegativity,was also introduced to modify the local crystal structure,consequently resulting in a further red-shift towards 675 nm and enhanced photoluminescence intensity in(Sr,Gd)Li(AI,Mg)_(3)N_(4):Eu^(2+).What’s more,w-LEDs were fabricated by using blue LED chip,blue,green,red and deep red((Sr,Gd)Li(Al,Mg)_(3)N_(4):Eu^(2+))phosphors whose color rendering index were Ra 96.0 and R997.7.All above results demonstrate that the partial replacements of Sr^(2+)by Gd^(3+)and Al^(3+)by Mg^(2+)are effective methods for spectral modulation and(Sr,Gd)Li(AI,Mg)_(3)N_(4):Eu^(2+)phosphors are suitable for highquality full-spectrum WLEDs.

文摘Herein,double-perovskite Ba_(2)LaTaO_(6) Eu-doped orange-red phosphors were successfully synthesized using a high-temperature solid-phase method.The phosphor phase purity was investigated using X-ray diffraction and microscopic morphology analyses.Their luminescence properties were investigated using absorption,emission,excitation,and temperature-dependent spectra.The transition mechanism mainly involves a magnetic-dipole transition with an energy transfer mode featuring multipole-multipole interactions,and concentration quenching is achieved via dipole-dipole interactions.In addition,the intensity of the temperature-dependent spectrum increases abnormally between 298 and 373 K,with the luminous intensity at 373 K increasing to 110%of that observed at room temperature.This phenomenon can be attributed to lattice defects in Ba_(2)LaTaO_(6):Eu^(3+),and the phosphor luminous intensity at473 K remains at 80.62%of that at room temperature.In addition,white-light-emitting diode devices based on this novel Ba_(2)LaTaO_(6):0.35Eu^(3+)phosphor were fabricated to evaluate the potential applications of the as-prepared phosphor.

文摘Although lithium-sulfur(Li-S)batteries with high specific energy exhibit great potential for next-generation energy-storage systems,their practical applications are limited by the growth of Li dendrites and lithium polysulfides(LiPSs)shuttling.Herein,a highly porous red phosphorus sponge(HPPS)with well distributed pore structure was efficiently prepared via a facile and largescale hydrothermal process for polysulfides adsorption and dendrite suppression.As experimental demonstrated,the porous red phosphorus modified separator with increased active site greatly promotes the chemisorption of LiPSs to efficiently immobilize the active sulfur within the cathode section,while Li metal anode activated by Li_(3)P interlayer with abundant ionically conductive channels significantly eliminates the barrier for uniform Li^(+)permeation across the interlayer,contributing to the enhanced stability for both S cathode and Li anode.Mediated by the HPPS,long-term stability of 1,200 h with minor voltage hysteresis is achieved in symmetric cells with Li_(3)P@Li electrode while Li-S half-cell based on HPPS modified separator delivers an outperformed reversibility of 783.0 mAh·g^(−1)after 300 cycles as well as high-rate performance of 694.5 mAh·g^(−1)at 3 C,which further boosts the HPPS tuned full cells in practical S loading(3 mg·cm^(−2))and thin Li3P@Li electrode(100μm)with a capacity retention of 71.8%after 200 cycles at 0.5 C.This work provides a cost-effective and metal free mediator for simultaneously alleviating the fundamental issues of both S cathode and Li anode towards high energy density and long cycle life Li-S full batteries.

文摘The recovery of rare earth elements(REEs) is a global challenge and the mining of rare earths has serious environmental implications due to the toxic waste released post mining.Hence,the rising demand for rare earths and their far reaching electronic applications necessitates an effective strategy to recover the REEs from more viable sources.In this work,the graphene oxide-Aspergillus niger spores(GO-A.niger spores) blend was utilized for adsorptive recovery of a precious rare earth Eu(Ⅲ) and the adsorption variables like pH of the medium,adsorbent dosage,sorption kinetics,thermodynamics,and isotherm were optimized for the developed bioso rbent.The adsorption process suits the Langmuir isotherm model with a maximum adsorption capacity of 147.3 mg/g.The pseudo-second-order kinetics is a perfect fit to describe the adsorption process.The results obtained through the Van’t Hoff plot show negative free energy change(ΔG^(0)) which implies the spontaneity of the adsorption process.The negative standard enthalpy change(ΔH^(0)) values show that the nature of the adsorption process is exothermic.The analytical characterizations including Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR),Raman,X-ray diffraction(XRD),X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS),Brunauer-Emmett-Teller(BET),thermal gravimetric analysis(TGA),and scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(SEM-EDX) were employed to study the biosorbent.The features of GO-A.niger spores biosorbent were applied to recover Eu(Ⅲ) from real samples such as fluorescent lamp phosphor,red phosphor powder,and a simulated radioactive waste solution.

文摘Electrochemical N_(2) reduction reaction(eNRR) over Cu-based catalysts suffers from an intrinsically low activity of Cu for activation of stable N_(2) molecules and the limited supply of N_(2) to the catalyst due to its low solubility in aqueous electrolytes.Herein,we propose phosphorus-activated Cu electrocatalysts to generate electron-deficient Cu sites on the catalyst surface to promote the adsorption of N_(2) molecules.The eNRR system is further modified using a gas diffusion electrode(GDE) coated with polytetrafluoroethylene(PTFE) to form an effective three-phase boundary of liquid water-gas N_(2)-solid catalyst to facilitate easy access of N_(2) to the catalytic sites.As a result,the new catalyst in the flow-type cell records a Faradaic efficiency of 13.15% and an NH_(3) production rate of 7.69 μg h^(-1) cm^(-2) at-0.2 V_(RHE),which represent 3.56 and 59.2 times increases from those obtained with a pristine Cu electrode in a typical electrolytic cell.This work represents a successful demonstration of dual modification strategies;catalyst modification and N_(2) supplying system engineering,and the results would provide a useful platform for further developments of electrocatalysts and reaction systems.
