It is of particular significance to unveil the authentic coloration mechanism of the multivalent praseodymium colored ZrSiO 4 yellow pigments for advanced decoration applications. We herein adopted a facile strategy to modulate the fluorine-assisted zircon crystallization and thereby obtained ultrafine Pr-ZrSiO 4 yellow pigments, which have a remarkably narrow size distribution and average diameters within 250–400 nm. By virtue of some cogent combinative spectra of reflection, absorption, excitation, and emission from three types of elaborately-designed H 2 -, air-, and O 2 -based pigments, the coloration mechanism for the Pr-colored zircon was systematically unveiled: both Pr 4+ and Pr 3+ coexist invariably in the pigments, while the former contributes primarily to the ligand-to-metal charge transfer from O 2p to Pr(IV) 4f for the blue–violet absorption to generate the yellow hue, and the latter is inclined to discolor the pigments. Therefore, an oxidizing atmosphere is preferable to produce brilliant Pr-ZrSiO 4 pigments with enhanced chromatic properties. The stark spectroscopic distinctions between the wide-band absorption from the nonluminescent tetravalency and the narrow-band absorption from the luminescent trivalency can expand our understanding to the rare-earth-based inorganic pigments.

Novel eco-friendly green pigments, Pr x Ca 2 -x Al 2 SiO 7 (0 < x ≤ 0.1) were synthesized via a solid-state method using Pr 6 O 11 as the coloring oxide and Ca 2 Al 2 SiO 7 as the base material. The results reveal that praseodymium (Pr) ions dissolved into the Ca 2 Al 2 SiO 7 lattice, with the green coloration primarily attributed to Pr 3+ in the lattice. The solid solution was influenced by both temperature and the amount of Pr 6 O 11 introduced. A bright green pigment with composition Pr x Ca 2 -x Al 2 SiO 7 ( x = 0.08) was obtained by maintaining the material at 1350°C for 1.5 h, yielding chromatic parameters L*: 78.29, a*: -18.37 and b*: 27.51. Pr 3+ , responsible for coloration, are retained in an octahedral coordination environment by substituting Ca 2+ in the Ca 2 Al 2 SiO 7 lattice, while Pr 4+ are converted to Pr 3+ when the temperature exceeds 1323K. The newly synthesized pigment is non-toxic, harmless, and exhibits remarkable thermal stability, its successful application to biscuit ceramics highlights its potential as a sustainable and eco-friendly pigment for the ceramics industry.

Praseodymium (Pr 3+ ) with rich f energy levels can generate various visible emissions, but the luminescence of Pr 3+ in a CaWO 4 matrix has not yet been studied. In this article, the phosphors of Pr 3+ -doped CaWO 4 were synthesized via a high temperature solid-state reaction, and the photoluminescence (PL) and afterglow properties of Pr 3+ in the CaWO 4 matrix were investigated. The phase identifications of the samples show that an impure monoclinic phase appears when the Pr 3+ concentration is high. The results of PL exhibit the usual Pr 3+ characteristic emissions as well as an emission that is produced by the charge transfer from 5 d of W 6+ to 2 p of O 2− under a shortwave ultraviolet excitation. An intermediate energy transfer occurs during the charge transfer which induces the afterglow. The quenching point of Pr 3+ in CaWO 4 is 2 mol%, corresponding to the critical energy transfer distance of ~20 Å. The quenching mechanism in the Pr 3+ -doped CaWO 4 is the dipole-dipole interaction. The Ca 2+ vacancies ( V Ca ) are the defects that induce the traps and capture holes from O 2− . The thermal energy of holes liberation from V Ca to O 2− results in the charge transfer accompanied by an energy transfer to Pr 3+ , and consequently generates the afterglow. The experimental results also show that the afterglow characteristics of Pr 3+ are prolonged by incorporating Pr 3+ in the CaWO 4 matrix.

A series of Tb3+, Pr3+ and Dy3+ monodoped CaTa4O11(CTO) persistent luminescence (PersL) phosphors have been successfully synthesized using the molten salt method with KCl flux. The PersL color is green and orange for Tb3+ and Pr3+ or Dy3+ doped samples, respectively. The trap depth of Tb3+, Pr3+ and Dy3+ monodoped CTO is 0.33, 0.31 and 0.30 eV, respectively. The PersL time of 3 mol% Tb3+, 1 mol% Pr3+ and 1 mol% Dy3+ monodoped samples is 52.20, 35.00 and 59.46 s, respectively. Tb3+, Pr3+ and Dy3+ monodoped CTO phosphors can be used in luminescence displays and anti-counterfeit labels under commercial 254 nm UV light.

Novel YAG:Ce 3+ , Pr 3+ , Yb 3+ phosphors were synthesized using a high temperature solid state reaction method. The XRD patterns revealed that the obtained samples belong to the single phase YAG. The optical spectra demonstrated that Pr 3+ could be a bridge to facilitate the energy transfer from Ce 3+ to Yb 3+ in the YAG host. Blue light excited Ce 3+ and a yellow emission from Ce 3+ together with a near infrared emission of Yb 3+ was obtained. The effect of Pr 3+ doping on the energy transfer efficiency was explored. When the doping concentration of Pr 3+ increased, the yellow emission intensities of Ce 3+ decreased and the near infrared emission intensity of Yb 3+ increased monotonously. Hence, the efficiency of energy transfer from Ce 3+ to Yb 3+ is enhanced by the addition of Pr 3+ , implying that the YAG:Ce 3+ , Pr 3+ , Yb 3+ phosphors are promising downshifting materials and have the potential to be used in Si-based solar cells.

Long persistent phosphors are widely used in many fields, such as LED, bioimaging, urgent lighting, temperature sensors, etc. Although green and blue long persistent phosphors are well developed, efficient orange-yellow long persistent phosphors are still relatively rare. In this work, a novel orange-yellow long-persistent phosphors Ca2LuScGa2Ge2O12:xPr3+(CLSGGO:xPr3+, x = 0.003, 0.005, 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04, 0.05) are prepared and systematically investigated through its crystal structural information, photoluminescence, and persistent luminescence properties. Under ultraviolet light excitation, these phosphors exhibit orange-yellow emission stemming from the3P0and1D2multiple electron transitions in the 4f level of Pr3+ion. In addition, the material exhibits bright persistent luminescence. The complex garnet matrix structure of Ca2LuScGa2Ge2O12provides excellent conditions for the formation of traps. Through the testing of thermoluminescence curve and function fitting, the density and depth of traps are studied; also, the storage and release process of carriers in the material are calculated in detail. A reasonable persistent luminescence mechanism is proposed for CLSGGO:0.01Pr3+. This work enriches the research content of photoluminescence and long persistent luminescence of Pr3+-doped garnet-based phosphors and paves the way for the future research of long persistent luminescent materials doped with rare earth ions.
