Herein, a strong red upconversion phosphor of Yb 3+ /Er 3+ co-doped Sc 6 WO 12 was prepared by employing an equivalent substitution approach. When irradiated by 980 nm near-infrared laser, the phosphor emits strong 660 nm red light. The main excitation mechanism for its red upconversion luminescence emission is the energy transfer process, through which the Er 3+ ions is promoted from the 4 I 13/2 energy level to the 4 F 9/2 energy level. In addition, it is noteworthy that the multimode upconversion luminescence phosphor exhibits three different trends upon temperature change, and its upconversion emission integral intensity ratio exhibits a linear relationship with temperature in the range of 298 K–623 K. This special property makes the phosphor promising for applications in optical temperature measurement.

Pure phase orthorhombic Er 3+ and Yb 3+ co-doped La 14 W 8 O 45 up-conversion luminescent materials were successfully prepared by the hydrothermal method combined with calcination treatment. The structures, morphology, and optical properties of the samples were analyzed by X-ray powder diffractometer (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), ultraviolet–visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV–Vis DRS), and up-conversion photoluminescence spectroscopy (UPL) with a 980 nm laser. XRD results indicated that the obtained samples are single-phase orthorhombic Er 3+ and Yb 3+ co-doped La 14 W 8 O 45 crystals. SEM results showed that the prepared sample exhibits an irregular and melted polyhedral-like morphology with agglomeration in submicron size of particles approximately 50–200 nm. UV–vis DRS results revealed that the La 14 W 8 O 45 crystal is a direct semiconductor with an optical band gap of 3.84 eV. The prepared Er 3+ and Yb 3+ co-doped La 14 W 8 O 45 crystals exhibit strong up-conversion emission peaks at about 526 nm, 548 nm, and 660 nm under 980 nm laser excitation. The intensity of up-conversion luminescence is affected by the Er 3+ doping concentration, and concentration quenching will be observed due to the cross-relaxation (CR) process when the Er 3+ doping content is above 1%. The pumping power dependence of the luminescence indicated that the up-conversion emissions of samples are excited by a two-photon absorption process. The color coordinates of the samples are located in the green light region.

Weak luminescence of the small-sized lanthanide-doped nanoparticles has limited their applications long. In recent years, there is a growing interest in luminescence thermal enhancement in small-sized upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs). The mitigation of surface quenching effects and the improvement of energy transfer (ET) are two convincing explanations for this phenomenon. A systematical investigation on the luminescence dynamics of Yb 3+ is implemented. ET rate and then the proportion of ET increases greatly with rising temperatures in Yb 3+ /Tm 3+ codoped system, while an alternative trend can be summarized in Yb 3+ /Er 3+ one. Based on these findings, therefore it can be concluded that the surface quenching mitigation related to the desorption of water molecules on the surface is a common mechanism of the luminescence thermal enhancement. But ET related to the thermally-activated surface phonons is a special case, it does play a positive role in Yb 3+ /Tm 3+ system. These findings not only explain the upconversion luminescence thermal enhancement in Yb 3+ /Tm 3+ system is more significant but also help to understand thermal enhancement and benefit highly-sensitive temperature probe design.

Cryolite has been considered as an appropriate host for up-conversion materials due to its low phonon energy, wide light transmission range, easy to form waveguide and stable structure. In this paper, a series of up-conversion materials Cs 3 YF 6 : Er 3+ , Yb 3+ with cryolite structure were prepared by high-temperature solid-phase method. The structure, morphology, element composition and up-conversion luminescence properties of as-prepared samples were characterized. In addition, the number of photons absorbed during the up-conversion process and the possible up-conversion luminescence mechanism are analyzed in detail. Under the excitation of 980 nm, the Cs 3 YF 6 : Er 3+ , Yb 3+ sample emits strong green light visible to the naked eye. Simultaneously, the maximum absolute sensitivity (S a ) and relative sensitivity (S r ) were calculated. All the results indicated that Cs 3 YF 6 : Er 3+ , Yb 3+ has potential applications in the fields of green light display and temperature sensing.

Lanthanide ion-doped metal halides are a promising class of fluorescent materials. In this paper, we investigated the optical properties and photophysical mechanism of Er3+, Yb3+-doped Cs2NaScCl6 phosphor. It was demonstrated that in both up-conversion (UC) and down-shifting emission modes, the increase of Yb3+ concentration resulted in enhancement of the 4F9/2 → 4I15/2 emission of Er3+ in Cs2NaScCl6. In particular, UC emission gradually shifts from green to yellow with the enhancement of the excitation power density observed in Yb3+-rich systems. The complex cross-relaxation behavior between Yb3+ and Er3+ results in these phenomena. New paradigms are provided for the development of multimodal and dynamic fluorescent anticounterfeiting materials.

Although rare-earth (RE 3+ )-doped negative thermal expansion (NTE) luminescent materials exhibit promising anti-thermal quenching effects, limited progress has been made in modifying their NTE and luminescence performances. This study investigates the impacts of Mo 6+ ion stoichiometry on the crystal structure, NTE behavior, and photoluminescence (PL) thermal response characteristics in Er 3+ , Yb 3+ co-doped Sc 2 Mo 3(1+x) O 12 phosphors (−0.1 ≤ x ≤ 0.1). The results reveal that augmenting the Mo 6+ content results in a transition from three-dimensional to two-dimensional NTE behavior in the host material due to the change in steric hindrance. This transition modulates cross-relaxation and back energy transfer processes between the doped Er 3+ and Yb 3+ ions. Consequently, the thermal enhancement factor for the upconversion luminescence of Er 3+ ions decreases with increasing Mo 6+ content, whereas the factor for near-infrared downshifting luminescence increases. Additionally, using the luminescence intensity ratio between the 1550 nm emission of Er 3+ and the 1050 nm emission of Yb 3+ for temperature sensing, a maximum relative sensitivity of 3.97 % K −1 is achieved in Sc 2 Mo 3.21 O 12 : Er 3+ , Yb 3+ . These findings provide insights into the synchronous regulation of the NTE and luminescence properties of RE 3+ -doped NTE phosphors for versatile applications.

NaYF 4 nanorods , and nanoparticles co-doping with Yb 3+ and Er 3+ were synthesized by hydrothermal method . The effects of doped ion concentration, the ratio of NaF to Ln (NO 3 ) 3 and the reactant content on the luminescence properties of the nanocrystals were investigated in detail in this paper. The materials were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and photoluminescence (PL) spectra. The results indicate that a doping level of 20 mol% Yb 3+ and 2 mol% Er 3+ gives the strongest luminescence, and concentration quenching occurs, when Er 3+ concentration exceeds 5 mol%. Besides, the reaction of temperature and time were also investigated and the results showed that they have an effect on the shape, size, and crystal phase purity of the nanoparticles . The luminescence mechanism for the NaYF 4 :Yb 3+ , Er 3+ was discussed. Under 980 nm excitation, the Er 3+ ions doped into NaYF 4 samples emitted green fluorescence 520 nm ( 4 H 11/2 → 4 H 15/2 ), 550 nm ( 4 S 3/2 → 4 H 15/2 ) and red fluorescence 650 nm( 4 F 9/2 → 4 I 15/2 ), which were modified and enhanced by Yb 3+ ions.

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.

Room-temperature green to orange color-tunable upconversion (UC) luminescence has been achieved from Yb3+/Mn2+ co-doped CaO by adjusting the doping concentration of Mn2+ ions and the temperature of the samples upon 980 nm laser diode excitation. In this material system, the green UC emission band centered at 508 nm and the wavelength-tunable orange UC emission band from 560 to 725 nm are realized at 980 nm excitation, which originate from the cooperative luminescence of Yb3+ pairs and the |2F7/2, 4T1(4G)〉 → |2F7/2, 6A1(S)〉 transition of exchange-coupled Yb3+–Mn2+ dimers, respectively. The characteristic Stokes and UC emission properties, UC luminescence decay behaviors, temperature-dependent UC emission properties, as well as the involved UC mechanism of CaO:Yb3+,Mn2+ are investigated and discussed in detail. This study offers a new method to design novel UC materials for lighting and display applications instead of using conventionally investigated lanthanide (Ln3+) ions, such as Er3+, Tm3+ and Ho3+.

In this paper, Er3+/Yb3+ codoped Y2(1–x%)Lu2x %O3 solid solution was prepared through the sol–gel method, and the substitution of Y3+ by Lu3+ ions in Y2O3 was confirmed by X-ray diffraction data. The up-conversion emissions of samples under 980 nm excitation and the relative up-conversion processes are investigated. The emission shapes do not vary with the change in doping concentration due to the unaltered cubic phase. The red-to-green ratio changes from 2.7 to 7.8 and then declines to 4.4 as the doping concentration of Lu3+ increases from 0 to 100. The emission lifetimes of green and red have similar variation: the emission lifetime decreases with doping concentration changing from 0 to 60 and rises as the doping concentration continues to increase. The reason why the emission ratio and lifetime change could be originated to the exacerbation of cross-relaxing process and the change of radiative transition probabilities. The temperature-dependent fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) shows that all samples can be used in noncontact optical temperature sensing, and the method of local structure distortion can be used to improve sensitivity further. The max sensing sensitivities of FIR based on R538/563 and Rred/green reach 0.011 K–1 (483 K) and 0.21 K–1 (300 K). The results display that Er3+/Yb3+ codoped Y2(1–x %)Lu2x %O3 solid solution can be potential candidates for optical temperature sensing in different temperature ranges.

YOF: Yb3+, Er3+ powders with rhombohedral phase were successfully synthesized by using a modified sol–gel method with calcinating under a temperature range between 400 °C and 600 °C. A systematic study on the temperature-dependent morphology and spectroscopic properties of rhombohedral YOF: Yb3+, Er3+ powders have been performed. The YOF: Yb3+, Er3+ powders that prepared at 400 °C and 500 °C exhibit a plate growth habit, while the powder that prepared at 600 °C shows a sintering property. When excited by 980 nm laser beam, all of the rhombohedral YOF: Yb3+, Er3+ powders show efficient red light emission with light wavelength ranging from 630 nm to 700 nm. The upconversion mechanism and luminescence decay properties were discussed in detail.

Tunable broadband white upconversion (UC) luminescence has been demonstrated in Yb3+/Tm3+/Mn2+ tri-doped KZnF3 nanocrystals from the excitation of a 976 nm laser diode (LD). The white light is composed of three sharp band peaks at 480, 650 and 700 nm, originating from the UC emissions of Tm3+ ions, and one broad band centered at 585 nm, originating from exchange-coupled Yb3+–Mn2+ dimers. The effects of the concentration, pump power and temperature on the UC luminescence properties of KZnF3:Yb3+,Tm3+,Mn2+ nanocrystals have been investigated. By changing the Mn2+/Tm3+ content ratio, various colors of the UC luminescence can be easily obtained in KZnF3:Yb3+,Tm3+,Mn2+ nanocrystals, which gives these nanocrystals potential applications in the fields of lighting, displays and lasers.
