Enhanced UVC upconversion luminescence in Pr3+-doped eulytite-type phosphates
UVC radiation's strong antiseptic properties make it ideal for water and surface decontamination, underscoring the need for new UVC-generating materials. In this work, Pr3+-doped Ba3La(PO4)3 and Ba2.5La1.5(PO4)2.5(SiO4)0.5 phosphors were synthesized via the Pechini method, and their structural and luminescent properties were investigated. Both compounds crystallize in a cubic eulytite-type structure and exhibit stronger 1D2 → 3H4 (575–645 nm) emission than the 3P0 → 3H4 (465–505 nm) transition. Under UV excitation, efficient 5d–4f emission is observed, while 444 nm laser excitation induces UVC upconversion via a two-photon process dominated by excited-state absorption (ESA). Optimal upconversion occurs at 1.5 % Pr3+ doping, with Ba2.5La1.5(PO4)2.5(SiO4)0.5 showing ∼30 % higher intensity than Ba3La(PO4)3 due to enhanced local disorder and crystal field effects. These materials outperform YPO4:Pr3+ phosphate in upconversion emission, highlighting their potential for use in UVC-emitting devices.
期刊介绍:
The purpose of the Journal of Luminescence is to provide a means of communication between scientists in different disciplines who share a common interest in the electronic excited states of molecular, ionic and covalent systems, whether crystalline, amorphous, or liquid.
We invite original papers and reviews on such subjects as: exciton and polariton dynamics, dynamics of localized excited states, energy and charge transport in ordered and disordered systems, radiative and non-radiative recombination, relaxation processes, vibronic interactions in electronic excited states, photochemistry in condensed systems, excited state resonance, double resonance, spin dynamics, selective excitation spectroscopy, hole burning, coherent processes in excited states, (e.g. coherent optical transients, photon echoes, transient gratings), multiphoton processes, optical bistability, photochromism, and new techniques for the study of excited states. This list is not intended to be exhaustive. Papers in the traditional areas of optical spectroscopy (absorption, MCD, luminescence, Raman scattering) are welcome. Papers on applications (phosphors, scintillators, electro- and cathodo-luminescence, radiography, bioimaging, solar energy, energy conversion, etc.) are also welcome if they present results of scientific, rather than only technological interest. However, papers containing purely theoretical results, not related to phenomena in the excited states, as well as papers using luminescence spectroscopy to perform routine analytical chemistry or biochemistry procedures, are outside the scope of the journal. Some exceptions will be possible at the discretion of the editors.
