The current development direction of magneto-optical (MO) isolators involving miniaturisation and application in high-power lasers encounters difficulties in material application because preparing materials with excellent optical quality and a high Verdet constant remains a challenge. Herein, (Tb1−xCex)3Sc2Al3O12 (x = 0.001, 0.0025, 0.005, 0.01, 0.015, 0.02) MO ceramics with different doping concentrations were prepared by vacuum sintering. The phase structure, element distribution, microstructure, relative density, optical properties, surface properties and MO properties of the (Tb1−xCex)3Sc2Al3O12 ceramics were also characterised. Experimental characterisation reveals that the (Tb1−xCex)3Sc2Al3O12 ceramics have a pure Tb3Sc2Al3O12 (TSAG) phase and exhibit an excellent uniform element distribution. In addition, no secondary phase was detected in FESEM images with the increase in Ce concentration. However, a few small-sized residual pores, which remain entrapped in the Ce0.015TSAG and Ce0.02TSAG ceramics, can be observed. Moreover, all the obtained ceramics have good optical quality, and the in-line transmittances of the (Tb1−xCex)3Sc2Al3O12 ceramics at 1064 nm are 81.7%, 83.7%, 80.0%, 84.0%, 68.8% and 77.7%. The Verdet constant of the ceramics is optimised by Ce doping, and the Verdet constants of all the ceramics at the test wavelength are better than those of TSAG ceramic. The Verdet constant of the Ce0.01TSAG ceramic is still superior to that of the TSAG ceramic in the same temperature range. Finally, the extinction ratio values for the CexTSAG (x = 0.001, 0.0025, 0.005, 0.01) ceramics exceeded 40 dB. The Ce0.01TSAG ceramic shows the best optical transmittance, the highest magneto-optical FoM values and the highest Verdet constants. Thus, this ceramic can be used for a high-power laser in the visible and near-infrared regions in the future.

NaYF 4 :Yb 3+ /Ho 3+ /Ce 3+ upconversion phosphors were synthesized by using a citric acid assisted hydrothermal method . Both increasing the concentration of Ce 3+ and decreasing the Yb 3+ content are beneficial to the formation of cubic NaYF 4 . When the concentration of Yb 3+ /Ho 3+ /Ce 3+ were 20/1/20 and 5/1/10, respectively, a pure cubic phase was obtained. The spectral conversion from green to red was achieved by first increasing Ce 3+ concentration to 10% and then decreasing the Yb 3+ concentration to 5%. In the first half, the two cross relaxation processes between Ho 3+ and Ce 3+ were responsible for the modulation of the luminescence, while in the latter half, the enhanced intensity ratio of red to green emission was related to the decreased energy transfer from Ho 3+ to Yb 3+ . Except for the sample doped with 5% Yb 3+ , 1% Ho 3+ and 10% Ce 3+ , the total emission intensity of other samples decreased linearly with increasing sample temperature. The maximum responsibility was obtained in the case of 20% Yb 3+ , 1% Ho 3+ and 5% Ce 3+ doping. Compared to the Er 3+ based luminescent temperature sensing, this novel temperature sensing not only shown little impact from pump power, but also had the identical sensitivity at various temperatures, and thus being a promising candidate for temperature sensing.

Iron (Fe) was successfully doped in CuWO4 photoanode films with a combined liquid-phase spin-coating method via the dopant sources of Fe(NO3)3, FeSO4 and FeCl3. The microstructure of the prepared films was characterized by x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy. The light absorption and photoelectric conversion properties were evaluated by the UV-visible absorption spectra and monochromatic incident photon-to-electron conversion efficiency. The chemical composition and element combination of the samples were examined by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. A linear sweep voltammetric and stability test (I–t) were performed with an electrochemical workstation. The results show that the samples are uniform with a thickness of approximately 800 nm and that the photoelectrochemical performance of the doped films is heavily dependent on the Fe source and dopant concentration. Upon optimizing the doping conditions of Fe(NO3)3 and the optimal source, the photocurrent density in the Fe-doped CuWO4 photoanode film is improved by 78% from 0.267 mA/cm2 to 0.476 mA/cm2 at 1.23 V vs reversible hydrogen electrode. The underlying causes are discussed.

In this report, doping concentration-dependent photoluminescence (PL) properties of Mn-doped ternary Zn–In–S quantum dots (QDs) were studied by using steady-state and time-resolved PL spectroscopy. The QDs PL was firstly significantly intensified with the increasing Mn doping concentration and then decreased after the doping concentration increased up to 7.5 at.%. However, their decay lifetimes exhibit a monotone decrease with Mn doping concentration ranged from 0 to 10 at.%. It can be concluded that the PL intensity was mainly determined by two factors: one was the increased efficiency of energy transfer from host excitons to Mn 2+ ion accepter, and the other was the decreased efficiency of the emission from a Mn 2+ ion, which was caused by the increased component of exposed Mn 2+ ions on QDs surface and the accelerated interaction between adjacent dopants. The competition of above two exciton relaxation dynamics processes determined the trend of the PL intensity, while the latter was responsible for the monotonously decreased lifetime of the Mn 2+ ion emission with the increasing Mn doping concentration.

Ca 3 La 6 Si 6 O 24 :Eu 3+ phosphors are synthesized in air through high-temperature solid-state reaction method. The crystal structure, morphology, and luminescence properties are investigated. Ca 3 La 6 Si 6 O 24 :Eu 3+ phosphor emits orange-red light in the range of 570–750 nm due to the 5 D 0 → 7 F S ( S = 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4) transitions of Eu 3+ ion. The optimal Eu 3+ doping concentration is ∼8 mol%. The energy transfer mechanism is the electric multipolar interactions. The luminescence lifetimes are ∼1.70, 1.66, 1.62, 1.57, 1.51, and 1.49 ms for x = 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 mol%, respectively. Ca 3 La 6 Si 6 O 24 :Eu 3+ phosphor shows excellent thermal stability with the E a value ∼0.3314 eV. The luminous and temperature quenching mechanisms are explained by the energy level diagram and configurational coordinate diagram of Eu 3+ ions, respectively. The experimental results indicate that Ca 3 La 6 Si 6 O 24 :Eu 3+ phosphor has a potential application in white light-emitting diodes (LEDs) based on the near UV (394 nm) LED chip.

Dy 3+ , Sm 3+ co-doped Y 2 SiWO 8 (YSiWO) phosphors were synthesized through the sol–gel method. The crystal structure, morphology, photoluminescence spectra and thermal stability of the phosphors have been thoroughly studied. The Dy 3+ dopant concentration is fixed at 2 mol% in co-doped samples. It is noticeable that energy transfer from Dy 3+ to Sm 3+ is apparent under the 365 nm excitation. The energy transfer mechanisms of Dy 3+ → Dy 3+ (YSiWO: Dy 3+ ), Sm 3+ → Sm 3+ (YSiWO: Sm 3+ ) and Dy 3+ → Sm 3+ (YSiWO: Dy 3+ , Sm 3+ ) are extensively studied, respectively. Upon the 365 nm excitation, the co-doped phosphor shows the color-tunable emission varying from blue-green to white via adjusting Sm 3+ concentration. The YSiWO: 0.02Dy 3+ , 0.06Sm 3+ phosphor exhibits an ideal warm white emission with CIE coordinates of (0.362, 0.323) and CCT of 4129 K. This phosphor is also found to possess the remarkable thermal stability. In summary, the YSiWO: Dy 3+ , Sm 3+ white-emitting phosphor may have potential use in w-LEDs.

The local symmetry of a Eu3+ ion has a crucial effect on its luminescence properties. In this work, we show that the red/orange ratio in the emission of Eu3+-doped MgIn2P4O14 phosphors is tunable by adjusting the Eu3+ concentrations, due to the change in the local symmetry of metal ions. The substitution of Eu3+ for In3+ lowers the distortion in the lattice of monoclinic MgIn2P4O14, and an increase in Eu3+ doping concentration causes the metal ion sites to shift closer to an inverse center, leading to a reversal of the relative emission intensity of a magnetic dipole transition to an electric dipole transition. Meanwhile, the higher asymmetry of metal ion sites occupied by Eu3+ in MgIn2P4O14 makes the luminescence less thermally stable than that in Mg3In4P6O24.

SrLa 4-x-y Si 3 O 13 : xTb 3+ , yEu 3+ phosphor was prepared by high temperature solid-state method. The luminescent centers of Eu 3+ and Tb 3+ occupying La 3+ lattice sites in hosts were confirmed by Rietevld refinement method. The phenomenon of self-cross-relaxation energy transfer is observed between Tb 3+ ions from 5 D 4 - 7 F J to 7 F 6 - 5 D 4 transition. Additionally, the direction of energy transfer (ET) was observed from Tb 3+ to Eu 3+ ions, and ET efficiency became more efficient as the concentration of activator increases. The type of ET between Tb 3+ and Eu 3+ ions was demonstrated to be the dipole-dipole mechanism. The multi-color lights were realized covering the green to red visible region by the route of energy transfer. Furthermore, the decrease of Eu 3+ emission intensity resulting from thermal quenching can be effectively compensated by Tb 3+ →Eu 3+ ET. The excellent luminescent properties and thermal stability show this phosphor to be a promising candidate for white LEDs.

In this work, we reported the growth of cadmium-free Ag-doped Zn–In–S nanocrystals (NCs) with effective photoluminescence (PL) via a hot-injection strategy. The effects of the nucleation temperatures, reaction times, and Ag-doping concentrations on the PL properties of Ag-doped Zn–In–S NCs were investigated systematically. The as-synthesized NCs exhibit color-tunable PL emissions covering a broad visible range of 472–585 nm. After being passivated by a protective ZnS shell, the PL quantum yield (QY) of the resultant NCs was greatly improved up to 33%. With the increase of the Ag-doping level, the PL is significantly intensified due to the improved concentration of Ag ions which provides more holes to recombine with electrons from the bottom of the conduction band. This also makes the emission via the dopant energy level become a powerful, competitive advantage for the NCs with higher Ag-doping levels, resulting in a longer lifetime and higher PL QY. These results suggest that tailoring the Ag-doping level can be a powerful strategy to control the optical properties of Ag-doped Zn–In–S NCs.

Efficient and stable persistent phosphors play a crucial role in the fields of energy storage, anti-counterfeiting, and biomedical fields. Here, we present an improved synthetic method for preparing a series of color-tunable LiYGeO 4 :Tb 3+ persistent phosphor. The increased Tb 3+ concentration in the improved method enhances the persistent luminescent intensity at 20 s by ∼2.96 times. This enhancement is due to the dual roles of Tb 3+ as both emitters and trap centers within LiYGeO 4 . By simply increasing the doping concentrations, the persistent color can be adjusted from blue to green. LiYGeO 4 :Tb 3+ exhibits no loss of persistent luminescent intensity even after exposure to water at 80 °C for 72 h, surpassing the commercial green persistent phosphor. Furthermore, information storage was successful demonstrated by using LiYGeO 4 :Tb 3+ with various doping concentrations. This study represents a significant advancement in optimizing the properties of persistent luminescent materials, where dopants simultaneously serve as emitters and trap centers.

Exploring novel oxysalt compounds remains significant due to their affordability and versatile applications, such as serving as laser crystals, piezoelectric crystals, frequency-doubling crystals, and luminescent materials. Specifically, this study introduces a new near-single green upconversion luminescent Ca 9 (VO 4 ) 7 : Yb 3+ /Er 3+ material, synthesized through high-temperature solid-phase methods. When subjected to 980 nm near-infrared laser irradiation, the Ca 9 (VO 4 ) 7 : 0.3 Yb 3+ , 0.02 Er 3+ phosphor demonstrates robust green luminescence at 531 nm ( 2 H 11/2 → 4 I 15/2 ) and 558 nm ( 4 S 3/2 → 4 I 15/2 ), accompanied by faint red luminescence at 665 nm ( 4 F 9/2 → 4 I 15/2 ). The optimal doping concentrations for Yb 3+ and Er 3+ ions, yielding the highest upconversion luminescence intensity, are determined to be 0.3 and 0.02, respectively. The investigation elucidates the upconversion luminescence mechanism through the downward shift spectrum in photoluminescence and the pumping power dependence of upconversion green-red luminescence. The primary excitation pathway identified for the upconversion process in Ca 9 Y(VO 4 ) 7 : 0.3 Yb 3+ , 0.02 Er 3+ involves Yb 3+ ( 2 F 5/2 ) + Er 3+ ( 4 I 11/2 ) → Yb 3+ ( 2 F 7/2 ) + Er 3+ ( 4 F 7/2 ). This research contributes to the exploration of new materials, injecting vitality into modern industries and production processes.

Their phase structures and surface morphologies have been characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The diversities of upconversion luminescence spectra and CIE coordinates of prepared samples are investigated in detail at room temperature under 980 nm excitation. Through adjusting the concentrations of Yb 3+ , Tm 3+ and Er 3+ ions, three upconversion emission bands in red, green and blue region could be tunable to achieve the color of interest and near white light emission can be obtained in the tri-doped Y 2 O 3 nanoparticles for a variety of application.
