NIR persistent luminescent materials enable safe and efficient imaging due to their deep tissue penetration and reduced phototoxicity compared to ultraviolet (UV) excited materials. The CaSnO₃:Bi²⁺ materials were synthesized using a high-temperature solid-state method. The effects of varying Bi²⁺ doping concentrations (1, 2, 5, 7, and 10%) on the material’s properties were systematically investigated. The synthesis process was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, revealing a perovskite structure for all samples. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis indicated uniform particle sizes of approximately 1 μm, successfully incorporating Bi²⁺ ions confirmed by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The luminescent properties of the CaSnO₃:Bi²⁺ materials were characterized using fluorescence spectroscopy and thermoluminescence spectroscopy. The excitation and emission spectra showed peaks at 260, 620, and 680 nm, corresponding to the transitions of Bi²⁺ ions. The samples exhibited NIR persistent luminescence under 260 nm excitation, with the CaSnO₃:5% Bi²⁺ sample demonstrating the highest phosphorescence intensity and longest decay time. This optimal performance was attributed to the highest trap concentration, confirmed by thermoluminescence spectroscopy. The persistent NIR luminescence of the CaSnO₃:Bi²⁺ materials was attributed to trap level up-conversion, a phenomenon where NIR excitation leads to NIR emission without the involvement of up-conversion materials. This mechanism arises from the reverse carrier transition from deep traps (DTs) to shallow traps (STs). Thermoluminescence spectroscopy further confirmed the occurrence of trap level up-conversion in the CaSnO₃:5% Bi²⁺ sample. The successful synthesis and characterization of CaSnO₃:Bi²⁺NIR long persistent luminescent materials with trap level up-conversion mechanisms opens up new avenues for their application in various fields.</p>","PeriodicalId":742,"journal":{"name":"Powder Metallurgy and Metal Ceramics","volume":"63 3-4","pages":"224 - 231"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143109176","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Under the actual operational conditions and anticipated dimensions of the final product, the initial dimensions of the material and the surface pressure applied before compaction are calculated. The average relative density and relative density distribution of circular titanium electrode blocks with different diameters (450, 500, and 550 mm) and different compaction processes were analyzed in the densification process. The impact of lubrication on the relative density distribution was investigated by modifying the coefficient of friction from 0.7 to 0.5, 0.3, and 0.1. The findings indicate that the electrode block's diameter significantly influences the relative density distribution. When the diameter exceeds 500 mm, it is imperative to pay particular attention to the low-density area (less than 0.7), which exhibits a notable increase from 0.42 to 1.71% in unidirectional compaction and from 0.02 to 0.18% in bidirectional compaction when the integral method is employed. Accordingly, the reduction in slag volume resulting from this factor should be considered when using the integral compaction method. In the case of electrode blocks with a diameter of 800 mm, the percentage of relative density between 0.7 and 0.8 under bidirectional compaction is higher than that under unidirectional one. However, the results were contrary in the range of 0.8 to 0.9. Compared to the integral method, the segmented method exhibited a comparable trend, with a percentage of relative density between 0.7 and 0.8, reaching 86.03% and a percentage of less than 0.7, equaling 0%. Furthermore, the core density of the segmented method is also higher than that of the integral one and has a standard deviation of approximately half that of the integral method. It indicates that in the case of uniform mixing, the uniformity of the segmented compaction is superior, and segregation is not readily produced. The standard deviation of the relative density distribution decreased with a reduction in the coefficient of friction, suggesting that the lubricant addition is beneficial in enhancing the uniformity of the density.</p>","PeriodicalId":742,"journal":{"name":"Powder Metallurgy and Metal Ceramics","volume":"63 3-4","pages":"128 - 143"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143108556","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The starting materials included calcium phosphate glass ceramics derived from biogenic hydroxyapatite, featuring both bound and migrating glass phases, and activated nanostructured carbon fibers. The glass ceramics with a bound glass phase were produced by sintering powder mixtures of biogenic hydroxyapatite and sodium borosilicate glass, while those with a migrating glass phase were produced through mechanical mixing of biogenic hydroxyapatite and sodium borosilicate glass powders. The fine activated nanostructured carbon fibers used in the biocomposites were obtained by the mechanical grinding of a woven material from activated nanostructured carbon fibers. This material resulted from the controlled stepwise pyrolysis of hydrocellulose fabrics, followed by high-temperature vapor activation of the nanostructured fiber surface.
