Tunable Broadband NIR-II Emission via Cr4+-Er3+ Energy Transfer in CaMgGeO4:Cr4+,Er3+ Phosphors for Nondestructive Analysis
Although there have been numerous reports on broadband near-infrared (NIR) emitting phosphors, their emissions are mainly concentrated in the range of 700–1000 nm (NIR-I). Herein, we successfully synthesized a broadband near-infrared phosphor CaMgGeO4:Cr4+(CMG:Cr4+) with an emission in the range of 1000–1600 nm (NIR-II). The introduction of Er3+ ions into CMG:Cr4+ resulted in a wider near-infrared emission phosphor CaMgGeO4:Cr4+,Er3+ (fwhm = 361 nm), compensating for the luminescence of 1500–1600 nm. More importantly, an energy transfer from Cr4+ to Er3+ ions has been discovered. Furthermore, a NIR pc-LED was fabricated by combining the CMG:Cr4+,Er3+ phosphor with a 590 nm chip. The changes in intensity and profile of the transmission spectra of light passing through different liquids reveal its potential application in organic compound recognition. This work opens a direction for the development of NIR-II phosphors.
