Abstract
A series of novel KSrY1-xErx(BO3)2 (x = 0-1) phosphors that emit near-infrared radiation was synthesized using solid-state methods. Pure Y and Er crystals were grown using a KF flux via the top-seeded solution growth technique. In situ high-temperature single crystal X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy and DFT calculations were used for characterization. Within the series, a polymorphic phase transition from space group P21/m to R3m was discovered between 550 and 600°C. The concentration dependence of the luminescence intensity was measured for the samples. A strong emission of Er3+ electron transition 4I13/2 → 4I15/2 was detected within the 1529-1549 nm range, with the maximum observed for the KSrY0.4Er0.6(BO3)2 composition.
期刊介绍:
Acta Crystallographica Section B: Structural Science, Crystal Engineering and Materials publishes scientific articles related to the structural science of compounds and materials in the widest sense. Knowledge of the arrangements of atoms, including their temporal variations and dependencies on temperature and pressure, is often the key to understanding physical and chemical phenomena and is crucial for the design of new materials and supramolecular devices. Acta Crystallographica B is the forum for the publication of such contributions. Scientific developments based on experimental studies as well as those based on theoretical approaches, including crystal-structure prediction, structure-property relations and the use of databases of crystal structures, are published.
